Abstract :
This paper constitutes the first stage of a more complex and diversified study of the effects of anterior teeth implantation on complete denture stability. The main aim of this first stage is to briefly present the issue of complete denture biodynamics with reference to the clinical observation of these phenomena. It can be thus noted that asymmetric couples may appear during dynamic mastication, which can cause unwanted and even dangerous shifting of the denture on the prosthetic field. The next stage of this study will present constructive-functional details using differential equations in order to establish long-term quantitative approximations of this harmful phenomenon
