Conventional denture impression techniques have limitations for edentulous patients with severe alveolar bone resorption and can cause problems from excessive border extension. Especially when a patient has movable tissue it is difficult to make accurate impression, thus might interrupt stable seating of complete denture. Fabrication of complete denture using closed mouth technique for edentulous patient with severe ridge resorption is thought to provide better stability and retention. In this case, an 86-year-old patient had both edentulous jaws with epulis fissuratum on maxillary anterior ridge and severe mandibular ridge resorption. Thus, tentative vertical dimension was determined by using Centric tray and individual tray attached with gothic arch tracer was fabricated. Complete denture was fabricated using closed mouth technique and the patient was satisfied with better stability and retention of the complete denture.
