Abstract:
According to the neutral zone concept, an appropriate denture form can be molded into a physiologic tooth arrangement by using a narrow rim bar occlusion, tissue conditioner, and a direct relining technique for both intaglio and cameo surfaces by using VLC reline resin. Denture stability can be obtained with this "border molding" technique, not only for edentulous patients but also for those with oral deformities.
