Question 123 (part 2) · LDEK · Denture-related oral lesions
Characteristic feature of prosthetic stomatopahies, especially in older patients, are perleches in one or both mouth angles. They may be observed in case of:
1) dentures with lowered occlusal height;
2) dentures with heightened occlusal height;
3) traumatic effect of the denture base, caused by vertical occlusal forces;
4) traumatic effect of the denture base, caused by alignment of high cusped teeth;
5) constant retention of saliva and bacteria in folds between the lips, which causes non-healing infections of this area.
Correct answer is:
2) dentures with heightened occlusal height;
3) traumatic effect of the denture base, caused by vertical occlusal forces;
4) traumatic effect of the denture base, caused by alignment of high cusped teeth;
5) constant retention of saliva and bacteria in folds between the lips, which causes non-healing infections of this area.
Correct answer is:
- A. 1,3.
- B. 2,5.
- C. 1,4.
