- Mechanical incisal guide table gives insufficient
information to reproduce _____________ - ____________ is made out of acrylic resin
and provides this information
- Mechanical incisal guide table gives insufficient
information to reproduce lingual contours of maxillary
anterior natural teeth - Custom incisal guide table is made out of acrylic resin
and provides this information
- Front teeth protect back teeth—front teeth disclude posterior teeth during _________ and _________ movements
- Back teeth protect front teeth—back teeth have ______ occlusal surfaces and ________ roots to help protect anterior teeth from bite forces
- Front teeth protect back teeth—front teeth
disclude posterior teeth during protrusive and
lateral movements - Back teeth protect front teeth—back teeth
have flat occlusal surfaces and strong roots to
help protect anterior teeth from bite forces
Vibrating Line

Retromolar Pad
– Contains attachments from__________ muscles
Retromolar Pad

Alveololingual Sulcus
* Anterior Region
– From __________ to ________
* Middle Region
– From __________ to distal end of ___________
– Flange is deflected __________ away from mandible due to ___________ in this area and
* Posterior Region
– Extends into____________
– Although mylohyoid attaches higher posteriorly, the posterior fibers are directed more __________ so the denture seats deeper and the lingual flange is longer
– Flange is deflected __________ toward the ramus of the
mandible to form typical S-form of lingual sulcus
– Denture extension in this area is limited by __________ and ___________
Alveololingual Sulcus
* Anterior Region
– From lingual frenum to premylohyoid fossa
* Middle Region
– From premylohyoid fossa to distal end of mylohyoid
ridge
– Flange is deflected medially away from mandible due to prominence of mylohyoid ridge in this area and contraction of mylohyoid medially
* Posterior Region
– Extends into retromylohyoid fossa
– Although mylohyoid attaches higher posteriorly, the posterior fibers are directed more vertically so the denture seats deeper and the lingual flange is longer
– Flange is deflected laterally toward the ramus of the
mandible to form typical S-form of lingual sulcus
– Denture extension in this area is limited by palatoglossus and superior constrictor muscles.
