the need for treatment with complete
dentures and are willing to rely on the
dentist’s advice for diagnosis and
treatment.
patient is concerned about the
appearance and efficiency of complete
dentures, reluctant to accept the advice of
the dentist, and opposed to the extraction
of any remaining natural teeth.
patient is in bad health, has neglected his
or her mouth, but submits to the removal
of any remaining teeth.
patient can also have
been unsuccessful in wearing
complete dentures and now demands
perfection that is unobtainable.

and does not care about ability to
masticate food. This patient will not
attempt to learn how to wear and function
