I had dedicated my first book published in 2012, “Complete Dentures and
Implant-Retained Removable Dentures,” to my brother, Air Force Lieutenant
Pilot Adnan Mücahit Kulak, who reached martyrdom in 1989 and to my
dearest beloved father Bahri Kulak who passed away in 2006.
When my mother read the dedication section of the book, she felt rejoice and
delight but also was grievingly melancholic and then I had promised her that
I would dedicate the second edition to her.
And I kept my promise my dear mother.
I dedicate this publication to my mother who showed unlimited loyalty to my
family, made endless sacrifices for her loved ones, provided immeasurable
amount of love in every stage of my life, and who is more or less similar to
other mothers but special because she is mine.
Preface
The second edition of our book consists of 19 chapters and more than 1500 colorful pictures
of our own clinical cases.
This book will continue to be a guidebook not only for dentistry students but also for den-
tists. It will both help the clinicians to offer the most proper treatment options to the patients
and give practical information about the solutions of the problems occurring before and after
the use of dentures.
As Leonardo da Vinci said, “He who loves practice without theory is like the sailor who
boards ship without a rudder and compass and never knows where he may cast.”
In this book, we tried to give theoretical information that can be adapted to the clinic rather
than giving theoretical information that cannot be applied practically.
I would like to thank everyone who contributed during the writing and publishing of the
book.

1.1 Anatomical Landmarks and Age-
Related Changes in Edentulous
Patients
When fabricating a new denture, your success will depend on
making the correct diagnosis and the correct treatment plan.
Gathering necessary information by careful examination of the
patient, determining the requests by asking questions, examin-
ing the negative or positive sides of their current prosthesis and
observing the psychological status of the patient are the most
important aspects for making the correct diagnosis.
Current research states that up to more than 50% of
elderly people may become edentulous. The population of
those wearing complete dentures are often individuals over
the age of 60. A careful analysis and clinical observation is
required for determining the prosthetic treatment needs and
demands of elderly patients. Some changes occur with age in
human physiology, and these changes are not widely
accepted by individuals. Therefore, when the patients go to
the dentist for the fabrication of a new prosthesis, they think
that the new dentures will completely eliminate all the prob-
lems and this affects the prognosis of prosthesis negatively.
Ageing is the sum of the irreversible structural and func-
tional changes in the molecules, cells, tissues, organs and the
systems of the organism occurring in course of time (Figs. 1.1
and 1.2).
The oral changes that are generally associated with age-
ing include increase in tooth loss, decrease in salivary flow
and atrophy of the oral mucosa and the muscles. These func-
tional changes cause differences in eating habits and chew-
ing functions leading to pathological changes. Loss of teeth,
