Q

What cast is used for the remount procedure?

A

When taking a denture out of the flask, cast usually breaks. We make a new cast from the complete denture by putting the plaster into it directly

Between:
◦ Mesial inner inclines of upper palatal cusps
◦ Distal inner inclines of lower buccal cusps (better trimming place)

Q

Occlusal equilibration centric relation: achieving maximum number of contacts, what are the two possibilities?

77
Q

Occlusal equilibration centric relation: achieving maximum number of contacts - There are only a few contacts at MI (3)

A
  • Trim that contacts until getting contacts at all

  • Never trim tip of functional cusp.
78

Q

• Look at general occlusal anatomy.
- If occlusal surfaces are flat, reshape them deepening fossae and sulci without altering balanced articulation.
