Book excerpt: : (1) Prosthodontics enjoys the honor of being the largest and probably the oldest discipline in the whole of dentistry. The technical importance of the subject may be understood by the fact that it is the only subject in the dental professional curriculum that is taught at the undergraduate (BDS) level from I year to the final year of the curriculum with maximum number of teaching hours devoted to it.The teeth are being extracted and being replaced by artificial teeth since a very long time. This may be some or all of the teeth. The complete dentures form one of the most important fields of Prosthodontics as this deals with majorly the restoration of the function of the patient.Thus a successful Prosthodontic treatment is a boon especially to the elderly section of our society which usually gets cutoff from the main stream of the social structure owing to their physical weakness and mental frustration which creates a vicious circle in the minds of these gentle people. Once restored to proper health and good oral functions, a tremendous boost of confidence is appreciated in such patients as they begin to re-enjoy their life and in a sense begin to re-live it. It basically covers all of the associated aspects of complete dentures also giving an insight into the Prosthodontic viewpoint of the maxillofacial prosthetics and the implant dentistry, hence encompassing the major part of complete dentures and to that the latest trends.
