Abstract
This study has been conducted on the subject of prosthetics. The dental prosthetics or denture and various aspects about it have been selected. In the introductory section, the basic concepts and types of dentures have been stated. After that, the different aspects and the over view of partial denture have been discussed. The types of the partial denture along with the concept of bridge have also been included within this section. In the next part of the report, the indication and contraindications along with the use of different types of flanges have been discussed. The type of flange suitable for partial, complete and single tooth denture has been separately stated. The chromium cobalt denture has been discussed along with its advantage and disadvantages. The structure of the complete denture and the factors influencing g the structure has widely discussed. On the other hand, the different factors like physical, mechanical, physiological which are affecting the stability and retention of the denture has been discussed. Lastly all the findings have been represented shortly in the conclusion.

Introduction
Prosthesis is one of the most important inventions of science which provides supplement to the different human body parts which have got damaged or lost due to congenital defects, trauma, and accidents or due to disease. In medical science the wide use of prosthesis is noticed in order to enable the patient to lead a usual life style with both surgical and non-surgical application. Among different types of prosthesis, different types of dental prosthesis and its use in the medical context is most common. Additionally in the context of dental prosthesis, the use of different types of dentures is identified which includes full or complete dentures, partial, immediate, custom dentures and more. Denture is the type of prosthetic implant which is used as the best replacement for the missing teeth of the patient.
1. Designs to show understanding of a complete denture
Different aspects about partial denture and the structures have vividly been discussed. Now, this section is all about the complete denture. This is the oral prosthetics that provides the full artificial dentition of a complete arch. As informed by Shimodaira et al. (2018), the full or complete denture creates its primary impression over the residual ridge of mandible and maxilla, buccal sulcus, frena, functional labia, retromolar pad, hamular notch and more. Hence, the structure of a complete denture should be designed with care in order to keep the oral and extra oral parts unaffected.
The task of the complete denture is not only to provide a best substitute to the normal dentition of a patient but qalos have some other factors like providing support. As per the view of Kutkut et al. (2018), the main approach of a complete denture is to provide support, maintain stability and retention as well. This can also be considered as the major function of the complete denture. The structure of the full denture has a close relationship with that of aesthetics and facial impression of the patient. As per the idea of Alqattan, Alalawi & Khan (2016), the special tray of the complete denture have the role over the impression of the patient and this should be customized as the facial expression differs from person to person. In modern orthodontics, the special tray have been further classified into closed fitting and windowed special tray. (Refer to Appendix 1)
The windowed special tray is the dental impression of the patent is taken in the plaster and this type of special tray is specifically applied for the patient who has the issue of flabby ridge. On the other hand, as per the view of Hein et al. (2015), in the context of closed fitting one, the use of wax has not been included in the spacers to block the undercuts. The impression has been taken in the closed fitting type of special tray with the help of silicon.
On the other hand, in the structure of the complete denture, occlusal rim takes a major part. As stated by McLaughlin (2015), the occluding fabricated surface on the complete denture base which has the function in the retention of teeth and providence of support to the maxillomandibular region is represented as the occlusal rim. Moreover, this has the major task in the arrangement of the artificial teeth of the oral prosthetics. In many cases it acts as the denture base and gives support to the prosthetics.
The selection of the position of the occlusal rim is a main task of the dentists in the process of prepa
