Abstract:
Biostereometric evaluation of denture tooth wear in 25 subjects was used to determine whether there was a relationship between the gonial angle, mandibular length, Frankfort-mandibular angle, and abrasion of denture teeth. The results of this study indicated no correlation could be demonstrated between any of the factors.
