[A new device for the positioning of lateral teeth in complete dentures].
A new instrument for the arrangement of the posterior teeth in complete dentures is introduced. The instrument consists of a device to attach a transparent base-plate reproducing the morphology of the jaw to an articulator. During the set up the base-plate is fixed to the articulator at the level of the occlusal plane. So the morphological features of the edentulous jaw are three-dimensionally reproduced by the base-plate at the occlusal level. The advantage of the instrument is to allow a better, immediate and direct control of the occlusal configuration of the posterior teethe in relation to the morphology of the jaw.
