B. The buccolingual relation of the teeth to the ridge.

The central fossa of the mandibular first molar should be over the center of the crest of the mandibular ridge. This relationship is necessary to prevent unfavorable leverages, which would cause the denture to tip and to prevent crowding of the tongue which would cause the patient to dislodge the denture.

c. The relationship of the teeth to each other

The relationships of the teeth in maximum intercuspation are very specific. Centric relation is equal to maximum intercuspation in complete denture patients.

1) The maxillary teeth overlap the mandibular teeth horizontally.

2) The long axis of each maxillary tooth is distal to that of the corresponding mandibular tooth.

3) Each tooth in both arches is opposed by two teeth, except the mandibular central incisor and the maxillary second molar.

Arranging the Maxillary Teeth:

Keep in mind the following principles:

The more buccally the tooth is located, the less stable the denture.

The tooth is not placed any further buccally than the denture border.

The line previously drawn on the mandibular wax rim locates the position of the mandibular teeth. The maxillary teeth are arranged in their most favorable position to the maxillary ridge and in a way to also provide the most favorable occlusal contacts.

The central fossa of the mandibular molar should be over the middle of the mandibular ridge crest.

a. Place the right maxillary first premolar with its long axis at right angles to the occlusal plane. The buccal and lingual cusps should contact the metal occlusal plane.

b. Place the right maxillary second premolar in like manner. Align the buccal surfaces of the premolars and the canine with the edge of metal or plastic occlusal plane template.

c. The mesiobuccal and mesiolingual cusps of the right maxillary first molar touch the occlusal plane. The distobuccal cusp is raised about 1/2 mm and the distolingual cusp is raised about 1/2 to 3/4 mm above the occlusal plane.

d. All of the cusps of the second molar are raised from the occlusal plane following the position of the first molar. The mesiobuccal cusp should be about 1 mm from the occlusal plane.

e. Follow the same procedure in placing the posteriors on the opposite side.

This is an average arrangement and modifications should be made as individual conditions indicate.

After placing artificial teeth technician cleans up the wax and prepares the denture for the try-in appointment, removes all wax from the teeth with the Roach carver. Technician flames the wax to smooth it, carves the denture bases to realistically resemble the supporting structures of a person who has teeth, recreates gingival crevices and canine prominences in the wax using the Roach carver. Then technician flames the wax to smooth, stipple the tissue surface with a tooth brush or Robinson bristle brush to further simulate reality. Psychologically, the patient is more likely to accept a natural looking, neatly waxed trial denture than a messy, poorly waxed approximation of the completed denture.



After this procedure waxed areas should be neat, clean, smooth, and properly festooned to simulate the natural healthy dentition. No wax on occlusal surfaces of teeth or under record base. Articulator and casts should be clean.

 

 

Materials for self-control:

A. Tests for self-control (tables, diagrams, drawings, graphs)

1. Draw a the types of artificial denture teeth.

2. advantages and disadvantages of various artificial denture teeth.

3. Make table with rules for selecting and arrangement of artificial denture teeth.
