Publication Chairside Relining of Mandibular Complete Denture for Management of Severe Lingual Undercut(Kathmandu University, 2025) Basnet, BBABSTRACT Lingual undercuts in the mandibular alveolar ridge pose significant challenges to conventional complete denture fabrication and patient comfort. This case report details the management of a severe oblique lingual undercut using addition silicone to create a blockout, facilitating space for a soft liner. This technique was incorporated during the denture fabrication process, simplifying the chairside relining with soft liner and improving denture seating and retention. By preemptively accommodating the undercut, the procedure minimized patient discomfort and ensured a more stable and comfortable denture, offering an effective alternative to more invasive surgical interventions.

Objective To determine the hamular notch-incisive papilla plane (HIP) as a useful reference plane in establishing the occlusal plane. Method This cross-sectional analytical study was conducted among 100 dental students by obtaining the maxillary cast from an impression made. The data collected were entered and analyzed using SPSS version 21. Paired t-test, Independent t-test and Pearson correlation was applied for statistical analysis. Result The vertical distance from hamular notch-incisive papilla plane and occlusal plane at the level of mesio-incisal line angle of maxillary central incisor and mesio-palatal cusp tips of maxillary first molar showed statistically significant difference (p < 0.001) on both right and left sides. There was statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) between hamular notch-incisive papilla plane and occlusal plane on right and left sides, between right and left mesio-palatal cusp tips of maxillary central incisors from hamular notch-incisive papilla plane. Hamular notch-incisive papilla plane, mesio- incisal line angle of right maxillary central incisor and mesio-incisal line angle of left maxillary central incisor had mild but significant correlation with age. The parallelism between hamular notch-incisive papilla plane and occlusal plane within the range of 2 mm was 62% on right side and 75% on left side. Conclusion Hamular notch-incisive papilla plane can be used as a practical method for establishing the occlusal plane tentatively.
