Abstract

Proper occlusal relationships are a part of successful prosthetic treatment for edentulous patients. Fabrication of complete dentures involves clinical and laboratory procedures that should be performed precisely for achieving success with fabricated dentures. These occlusal errors can be corrected, (1) in a patient's mouth or (2) by recording new centric relation and remounting dentures on an articulator. The second method is more viable because the denture base moves over the oral mucosa which is unable to identify premature contacts in centric occlusion and tooth guided eccentric excursions. This article depicts the modest and effective clinical chairside remounting procedure.
