Changes in Vertical Dimension of Complete Dentures due to Rebasing with Different Techniques

Abstract

ABSTRACT Dental literature is devoid of information in respect of altered incisal pin relation due to compression molding in a single denture. It is to be reckoned that in rebasing technique, the entire segment of teeth remain fixed through a matrix of set polymethylmethacrylate that binds all the teeth. Thus, the artificial teeth do not remain as individual but act as a single unified unit of all the teeth. In view of lack of information in change in vertical dimension due to rebasing procedures and with the aim of determining the method of rebasing that result in minimal changes in occlusal discrepancy, the study was undertaken to evaluate the changes in vertical dimension of occlusion after rebasing using two different methods.
