![Collapse WOK-30: Tooth Arrangement (Complete Denture Esthetics)](/images/arrowup.gif) | Arrangement of teeth is based on a system using accurately contoured occlusal rims. There is a three dimensional guide for dental technicians in arriving at the general tooth arrangement and perfecting their rotation. Basic positional changes that can be applied to individual anterior teeth are described and demonstrated through drawings and performance. Consideration is given to superior, inferior, anterior-posterior, the pitch as well as the tilt and rotation of each anterior tooth in the discussion.

![Collapse WOK-32: Final Impressions for Complete Dentures](/images/arrowup.gif) | Procedures used to finalize maxillary impressions include use and rationale of border molding, development of functional reliefs and uniformity of contact over the bearing areas. Use of fluid wax to obtain a physiological postpalatal seal is also demonstrated. In part two, the mandibular impression described covers the maximum bearing area while developing buccal and lingual flanges that provide border sealing without restricting the physiological activity of adjacent structures. Resultant base will show excellent retention from vertical and horizontal forces. This tape was produced by the Veterans Administration.

Also included in part one is a demonstration of sprinkling a characterizing veneer into the mold after the wax-removal process. Part two addresses the handling and packing of the flasked molds with methylmethacrylate resin, followed by recovery of the processed dentures and their correction for processing errors. The dentures are then finished with polishing elements. Attention is given to preserving orientation indices to facilitate the delivery of the dentures.
