Title: Denture aesthetics: the union of natural contour, color, and shape. Author: Turbyfill WF. Journal: Signature; 1995; ():14-7. PubMed ID: 9227144. Abstract: This article reviews a method for placement of full dentures in completely edentulous maxillary and mandibular arches. The selection of a maxillary central incisor is discussed along with the facial/tooth measurement, incisal papilla as a landmark in the maxilla, the midline, and the positioning of the remaining maxillary anterior teeth. The "S" position of the mandibular incisors, occlusion, and the verti-centric dimension are reviewed. The four basic tints of the denture bases are listed, and precision processing is recommended in fabricating the final dentures from information gained from the provisional restorations.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
