Background Plate dentures cannot be easily modified after fabrication; therefore, the sites and magnitude of relief must be effectively assessed at the time of fabrication. However, a considerable variation exists in the magnitude of optimal relief and relief range, and there are no guidelines that present these clearly, leading the dentists to decide subjectively. Thus, this study aims to develop an optimal relief method to improve the stress bearing capacity of the palatal mucosa. Methods The objective of this study, namely, the borderline, was set in steps. A three-dimensional finite element model for the pseudopalatal plate was created and used to evaluate the changes in stress distribution in the palatal mucosa due to the selective relief of stresses above the borderline. The resulting data were used to develop the optimal relief method. Results In the relief model with a borderline of 0.04 MPa or higher, the distribution volume at which a high stress of 0.20 MPa or higher is generated was approximately 800% of that with the no-relief model, and in the relief model with a borderline of 0.06 MPa or higher, the respective ratio was approximately 280%. On the other hand, the relief models with a borderline of 0.14 MPa or higher were approximately 60%. In the mid-palatal relief model, the distribution volume at which a stress of 0.20 MPa or higher was generated was 180% of that in the relief model. Conclusions The supportive strength of plates can be increased by selectively applying optimal relief rather than standard relief, allowing for easier and more effective plate-denture treatment.
