Fabrication of a successful maxillary complete denture for severely atrophic maxilla with large interridge distance often poses a clinical challenge not just due to decreased denture base area for retention, stability and support but also due to increased height and weight of the prosthesis which exerts excessive and constant pressure leading to further bone resorption. This clinical report describes a simple technique of fabricating a hollow maxillary complete denture in a patient with resorbed maxillary and mandibular ridges with increased interridge distance which reduces the weight of the prosthesis, aids in preserving of the existing residual alveolar ridge thereby enhancing the retention and stability.
