recall and optimal personal oral hygiene.23, 24, 25 It is suggested that a denture base kept well relieved from the gingival margin with regular denture and periodontal maintenance will improve periodontal health in RPD wearers. CONCLUSION Removable acrylic resin partial dentures tend to adversely affect periodontal parameters when teeth are in contact with resin base. This effect is increased with longer duration of RPD wear. Therefore, it is recommended to keep the dentures well relieved (at least 6x10mm) from the gingival margin wherever possible.
