A

True, False (measured in mouth)

28
Q

Axis of rotations determined from?

A

Line drawn through primary rests

29

You would use the altered cast technique on Class I and III RPD designs

A

False (only for class I and II)

48
Q

Which of the following is true concerning guiding planes?

A

-As wide as ½ the distance between cusp tips
-1/3 the bucco-lingual width of the tooth
