title: Research on remounting procedures.
abstract: This study has indicated that numerous benefits accrue from remounting dentures to correct occlusion and recontouring the tissue side of the bases at the time of insertion. This appears to be due to the changes in contour of the denture bases after the stone casts have been removed from them and indicates that a significant change in the occlusal relationship occurs during the deflasking procedure. Since adjustments and postinsertion complaints were materially decreased by early remounting and alteration, patients should benefit from such procedures by receiving restorations that may decrease the rate of bone resorption, be more comfortable, and tend to be effective for a longer period of time. The dentist should consequently be more satisfied knowing that he has done everything possible to provide quality dentistry to his patients.
