[QUOTE="denturist-student, post: 242354, member: 5492"] No but this patient has a very steep palatal curtain almost straight downward. But its falling out at the front which leads me to think that palatal curtain may be pushing it forward enough to break the seal. the lady is very old and tissue tension is a real issue...I am going through all the motions for border molding okay and the impression seems good when I take it out. But yes the curtain may be thrusting it forward. I have heard that patients with a steep palatal curtain ie almost 90 degrees are difficult cases. but I am missing something here. It may be technique related....May be overextension at the back of the denture....that would push it forward a bit and break the seal. Even when doing the final impressions the lady said it was loose....arghhhhh.....I don't have any hair to pull out...lol [/QUOTE]
