[Protocol for teeth set-up in full denture without the use of wax rims and its theoretical justification]. / Protokol postanovki iskusstvennykh zubov bez ispol'zovaniya prikusnykh valikov i ego teoreticheskoe obosnovanie.

OBJECTIVE: To develop a protocol for setting artificial teeth in a complete removable denture without landmarks on the bite ridges. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Based on the analysis of the literature of various areas of dentistry and the clinical experience of doctors corresponding to each of the disciplines of the specialty, a protocol for setting teeth in a full prosthesis was developed and its theoretical justification was given. RESULTS: Using the method proposed by us, 324 prostheses were made for 162 patients with complete secondary adentia of two jaws. A clinical study and comparison with the generally accepted method of manufacturing prostheses using wax rollers was carried out. The method proposed by us showed greater efficiency based on a comparison of the results of functional tests after prosthetics. CONCLUSION: The described method is part of the concept of manufacturing a functional prosthesis, is used in removable prosthetics, but can also be used in non-removable prosthetics, allows highly accurate, in accordance with individual anatomical parameters and features, to restore the occlusion of the patient during the reconstruction of the dentition, taking into account individual anatomical and functional parameters.
