This document discusses bite registration techniques for removable partial prosthodontics. It describes how bite registration allows the accurate transfer of the relationship between the upper and lower jaws from a patient's mouth to an articulator. This preserves the patient's occlusion when fabricating restorative procedures. Various materials that can be used for bite registration are discussed, including requirements like stability and ability to record occlusal surfaces accurately. Methods for inter-occlusal records are presented, including using wax or occlusal rims when there are insufficient teeth for hand articulation of dental casts. The concepts of centric relation and centric occlusion are also defined.

BITE REGISTRATION
• Bite registration : is a technique by which the dentist transfer
the relationship between the upper and lower jaw from the
patients mouth to the articulator.
• Bite registration allows the dentist to observe accurately
tooth contact, occlusal discrepancies and to fabricate
restorative procedure for the patient without changing in
patients occlusion.
• Its important to establish and transfer the relationship
between the maxillary and mandibular dental arches that
exists when the condylars are in the posterior superior
position in the glenoid fossa to an articulator using a bite
registration materials
REQUIREMENTS OF MATERIAL
USED
1. It should be stable (have little or no dimensional change
during setting.
2. It should give accurate record of occlusal surface and incisal
edges of the teeth.
3. It should not affect normal closing of the mandible.
4. The material should remain rigid after setting.
When enough teeth are present in both dental arches
we can transfer the relation by hand articulation of the
casts. i.e., no bite registration is needed in such cases,
so we can occlude the opposing casts by hand, then we
mount them on the articulator.
If the remaining teeth are insufficient
to produce hand articulation of the
casts, we have to record the bite by
using either of the followings:
1. Pink base plate wax.
2. Bite registration paste.
3. Bite rim or occlusal rim
Centric relation: It is an arch to arch (mandible to
maxilla) relationship when the condyles are in their
terminal hinge axis (on the most superiorposterior
position) in the glenoid fossa irrespective to teeth
contact, It is the starting point of occlusion.
Centric relation is the physiological position of the
condylar head of the mandible (without stress) from
which all other movement is initiated. Centric relation
is taken when no enough occlusal stops are left after
teeth preparation especially in cases of full mouth
rehabilitation of fixed partial denture. In centric relation
it must not perforate the registration material.
Centric occlusion : teeth to teeth relation ship it is the maximum
occlusal contact or intercuspation irrespective of condylar
position. Maxillary and mandibular teeth should contact in
harmonious manner that allows optimum function, minimum
trauma to the supporting structure and an even distribution of
load through the dentition.
MAXIMUM INTERCUSPATION (CENTRIC
OCCLUSION) IN HEALTH DENTATION IS
USUALLY 0.5-1.0MM ANTERIOR TO CENTRIC
RELATION
In Recording The Centric Occlusion With Maximum Intercuspation The Record
Material Must Show Perforation In Area Of Contact Teeth.
METHODS OF INTER-OCCLUSAL RECORD:
1. If enough teeth are present in both upper and
lower arches to stabilize their relation ship. No
bite registration is needed we can transfer the
relation by hand articulation.
2. If the remaining teeth are insufficient to provide
hand articulation of the cast we can use:
-Pink base plate wax or alu-wax (wax reinforced
with fiber)
Apiece of wax is placed on the maxillary teeth and
ask the patient to close in centric relation then the
wax is removed and placed in water for cooling.
• 3- Occlusal rims: - When insufficient number of the teeth are
present to stabilize the cast. A bite rim must be made using a
base plate wax to replace the remaining teeth.
Bite rim: The bite rim is used in the following cases:
1. Free end saddle.
2. When we need to restore the anterior teeth.
3.When we don’t have enough teeth to obtain the
centric relation.
STEPS OF JAW RELATION
Recor ds
 Lipsupport (class IV) and occlusal plane
adjustments
 Vertical Jaw Relations:
Rest Vertical Dimension ‘RVD’
Occlusion Vertical Dimension ‘OVD’
 Horizontal Jaw Relations:
Centric Relation
Centric Occlusion
Eccentric Relations
• Protrusive relation
• Lt & Rt Lateral
relations

The desired incisal level. This is decided by reference to adjacent teeth


and to resting level of upper lip
Incisal level of the rim should be parallel
to the interpupillary line. The upper

VERTICAL JAW RELATION

Rest Ver tical Dimension


( RVD)

Is the distance measured


when the mandible is in
the rest position.

Occlusal ver tical Dimension


( OVD)

Is the distance measured


when the occluding rims
or teeth are in contact.
