10. :Alveolar ridge resorption- 1
•Ridge resorption in anterior maxilla
occurs upwards and back wards.
• In anterior mandible it occurs
downward and lingually.
•The anterior teeth are placed in
maxillary denture forwards and
inferiorly.

11. The distance from papilla to gingival
margin 8 mm
From papillae to incisal edge 10 mm
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 11
12. Esthetics-teeth is important.
Lip support by the
2
Amount of tooth showing (about 2 mm)
Lower lip pressure causes instability of mandibular denture
if placed anteriorly.

13. Grinding incisal edge and changing position
of teeth
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 13
14. Too colored teeth to simulate natural teeth
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 14
15. Phonetics-3
Speech is
affected by the
position of the teeth
and the contour and
bulk of the palate.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 15
23. General
considerations
The midline of lower anterior as
the upper one.
The teeth are set on the ridge.
The. overlap will be about 1.5
mm.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 23
24. Vertical and
horizontal
overlap
In natural teeth
there is contact
between upper
and lower teeth
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 24
25. In complete denture 1mm overjet is left
and incisal angle less than 15 degree
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 25
26. The central and lateral
incisors
The incisive
edge 1.5 mm
above plane.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 26
27. The canine
The incisal tip may be
slightly higher than
the lateral and central
incisor.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 27
31. The neutral zone-1
the neutral ِ eeth are in
T
zone. This ensures denture
.stability
The cheek and lip press on
the teeth from outside and
the tongue from inside.
The area of equilibrium
between the two forces is
.called the neutral zone
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 31
32. The position of the-2
posterior teeth in
relation to the
alveolar ridge
The posterior teeth are
placed on the ridge crest
especially the mandibular
teeth. This position is
important for lower denture
.stability
If it is necessary to place the
teeth outside the ridge crest
it is done for the maxillary
08/29/12
. denture D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 32
33. Balanced occlusion-3
It is maximum contact between the
maxillary and mandibular teeth in centric
and eccentric positions.
Eccentric positions include protrusive
position and lateral position in both
.working and balancing sides
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 33
34. There should be maximum contact
.in centric occlusion
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 34
35. Contact during protrusion
At least three widely separated points or
.areas of occlusion must exist
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 35
36. Contact during lateral movement
Working side Balancing side
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 36
37. Contact during
lateral movement
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 37
38. To achieve balance there should be
anteroposterior curve for the posterior teeth
(curve of Spee) and mediolateral curve (curve
(.of Monson
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 38
40. The maxillary posterior teeth
Note the anteroposterior curve.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 40
41. The posterior teeth buccal surfaces make
contact with a straight line drawn from the
.labial surface of the canine backwards
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 41
43. The mandibular posterior teeth
The mandibular
teeth are set to
occlude with
maxillary teeth
in
anteroposterior
and mediolateral
curves.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 43
49. A) Superior protrusion
((Class II
The lower ridge is narrower than
the upper and associated with a
receding chin.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 49
50. Setting up the posterior teeth
Setting the upper teeth inside the
ridge does not produce marked
instability
While setting, the lower teeth
outside the ridge will lead to
instability.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 50
51. Setting the anterior teeth
The large overjet is preserved.
Angulations of the upper teeth give
the patient a rabbit appearance
Angulations of the lower tend to
unstabilise the denture
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 51
52. B-Inferior protrusion
(Class III)
The lower ridge is broader than
the upper and usually associated
with a protruded chin.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 52
53. Setting of the posterior
teeth
Cross biting
the posterior
teeth.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 53
55. Setting of the
posterior teeth
Lower teeth that are narrow buccolingually are
of great advantages
If the upper teeth set outside the ridge a metal
plate should be incorporated in the denture to
prevent fracture.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 55
56. Setting of the anterior teeth
The anterior teeth in such cases
are best set either edge to edge or
with a negative overjet.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 56
57. Gum fitted anterior teeth
The absence of the anterior gum work affect
denture retention and wings may be used.
08/29/12 D.SIRAG EDDIN AL-HAMADI 57
58. Indications gum fitted upper
anterior teeth
a) When the teeth too prominent.
b) When the gum work presses the
lip out e.g. in tight-lipped patients.
