In full mouth rehabilitation cases we sometime need to use base metal cast posts and cores to restore all the teeth and we might need metal framework for bridges and PFM crowns. Do all these increase head weight, leading to discomfort, stresses, headache, TMD problems ?

Dear Dr
Based on my experience, i don't think it is going to be that much heavy to increase the head weight unless your framework is too bulky/ over contoured cores and crowns. As literature shows quite a number of cases with co-cr /gold based frameworks for complete denture. Even i did quite a few full mouth rehabilitation with overlay dentures.
good luck.
