Abstract

This is a short discussion on the technique of denture construction which is being employed by the most prominent and successful prosthetists of today. Since it is annoying to have a technical investigation misinterpreted because of lack of uniformly applied terms, there is a necessity to annex concise definitions to the technique. Thus a strenuous effort will be made to closely adhere to the original meaning of standard terms and to modify these or add to them as little as possible when they are comprehensive. In the past it was customary to include into an articulator technique many bombastic theories from the study of facial contour and psychology to the sleeping habits and financial status of the patient. Sometimes in addition, instruments and instrumentations with superfluous embellishments were recommended as a panacea against dental failures.
