Use of the remount jig as an aid in relining upper dentures.
A remount jig record is used to reposition the teeth of an upper denture reline in their original position. A face-bow record is used to position the upper edentulous cast in the correct relation to cranial planes. The impression may be developed as is done in any other impression procedure, and the repositioning can be accomplished in the laboratory with reasonable assurance that the upper denture is positioned occlusally as it was when the denture was constructed originally. This procedure relieves the dentist of the monumental task of making a reline impression and adjusting the position of the denture in one three-minute operation.
