Q

Can use this if the natural lower dentition’s occlusal table is uneven.

A

20 degree template.

It’s a metal horseshoe that tells you which teeth have high points that are making the occlusal plane uneven.

Q

How do you transfer occlusal adjustments from the cast to the patient?

A

Make a matrix of the casts after you’ve made the modifications.

This clear suck down can be used in the patient.

Place PIP in the matrix, and place it on the patient.

See where the wax has stuck to the cast, and those are the areas where you make the mods.
