Hi Toothie,
Thanks a lot.The doubt which i have is In KAplan, It is written That LAtex Allergy Can be Life threatening Where as In Strudevent It is Written That Mercury Toxicity IS not life threatening.Moreover,In everyday Practice we hardly HAve any toxic symptoms from Mercury.LAtex allergy i have not seen.So still that remains the confusion.Other thing Most common tumor in parotid Is Warthin's Tumor(Two of my friends told me So i wanted to conform).In Bouchers,Somewhere it is written That if u have a complete denture opposite NAtural Teeth The force exerted IS more.Still the doubt exists.ANyways Thanks alot for u r answers.

the most common tumor is defiantely pleomorphic adenoma.... im sure about that.. warthins is the second most common.. shaefers says the same.. plus if u go to google and do a serch.. all the sites i checked .. said the same....

i agree with you about a complete denture oposing natural teeth exerting the maximum force.. i was thinking more on the lines of complete denture for maxillary and mand... not individual denture opposing natural dentition..
if u consider it that way ... definately complete denture is the answer....

mercury poisoning if it occurs is in the long run... its a chronic condition and requires high levels of exposure to mercury....
latex allergy is an acute condition.. if u know ure allergic why use it.....
in the long run .... considering retirement ..
wait , u said the question was which is not a reason for retirement,... how about high stress not being a reason... i mean u may be stressed , but would that mean u would retire..... !!whereas if u had mercury poisoning or if u ewre fatally allergic to latex.. amy be u would want to retire....just doing loud thinking.. what are ure thoughts.....🙂
