Abstract
There are many factors involved in the success of a good quality complete dentures, one of them is retention. There are some forcing situations where providing optimal retention may be a problem, in which use of denture adhesives is recommended. In the present study, primary and secondary impressions were made on 20 completely edentulous patients, master cast was fabricated. Master cast was duplicated; heat-cured denture base was fabricated. The retention test for control group, powder group, wafer group, paste group was done using a customized force sensor device. Readings was subjected to ANOVA followed by post hoc test. Results show that the retention force value of the paste group was the maximum, followed by powder group, wafer group and the least retention force value was observed with control group. Within the limitations of the study it can be concluded that the paste form of denture adhesive has the best retentive property compared to the powder and wafer.
