Abstract:
Objective: To determine the most posterior limit of the maxillary complete denture through position of vibrating line in relation with the fovea palatinae in complete denture patients visiting at Prosthodontics department of Isra dental college, Hyderabad. Methodology: During this cross-sectional study from June 2018 to March 2019, 155 edentulous patients of either gender, having age ranges from 40-60 years and above were included. Indelible pencil was used for marking of vibrating line location and results of vibrating line location whether it is anterior, at or posterior to fovea palatinae were recorded in written proforma when patient pronounce the word “Ah” in normal unexaggerated manner. Results: Among 155 edentulous patients, we found vibrating line anterior to fovea palatinae in almost 53% cases followed next in frequency it was found at the fovea palatinae in 46.5% cases. Conclusion: Fovea palatinae is best anatomical structures to help in location of vibrating line and posterior palatal seal and vibrating line in most cases is located anterior to the fovea palatinae.
