ROLE OF NEUROMUSCULAR EXERCISE IN IMPROVING COMPLETE DENTURE FUNCTION – A REVIEW

  • Unique Paper ID: 185705
  • PageNo: 2511-2515
  • Abstract:
  • Complete denture prosthodontics aims to restore mastication, speech, esthetics, and comfort in completely edentulous patients. However, neuromuscular control plays a pivotal role in achieving functional success. Neuromuscular exercises are specialized training techniques that enhance the coordination and proprioceptive feedback between the oral musculature and the prosthesis. This review highlights the importance of neuromuscular exercise in improving complete denture function, summarizing its physiological basis, clinical implications, protocols, and research perspectives. Neuromuscular re-education can significantly enhance retention, stability, and patient adaptation to dentures. The review also explores methodologies for implementation and the future scope of this integrated approach.
