Abstract: Flabby ridges commonly occur in edentulous patients were inadequate retention and stability of a complete denture are the often encountered. A liquid supported denture due to its flexible tissue surface allows better distribution of stresses and hence provides an alternate treatment modality in such cases. A liquid-supported denture was planned for maxillary arch with neutral zone concept for fabrication of contour of the polished surfaces of mandibular denture. This case report presents the use of a liquid supported denture in a patient with completely edentulous maxillary arch with flabby tissue in anterior region opposing neutral zone concept for atrophied edentulous mandibular ridge.
