| Zusammenfassung: | <jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title> <jats:p>Many edentulous patients with severely resorbed ridge complain of loss of retention and discomfort with the use of conventional complete dentures. Basic principles of retention, stability and support are lost in these patients as overlying mucosa is thin and nonresilient. This article describes a case report of a 52-year-old completely edentulous female patient with severely resorbed mandibular ridge where a novel technique was used by sandwiching a layer of permanent soft resilient liner (Molloplast-B) between the denture teeth and denture base to reduce traumatic impact of masticatory forces on residual ridges and thereby reducing the residual ridge resorption. The resilient layer acts as a ‘shock absorber’ or ‘stress distributor’.</jats:p> <jats:sec> <jats:title>How to cite this article</jats:title> <jats:p>Bansal S, Aras M, Chitre V.
