Selecting & Setting Teeth - 47
Canines should be tilted more posteriorly than other anterior teeth, and should have a
more prominent cervical neck
- check symmetry against land area and land area reference lines
- 1-2 mm horizontal overlap (overjet), .5 mm vertical overlap (overbite) – anterior teeth
don't contact in centric position
- for monoplane occlusions, NO OVERBITE is set - this means you need to determine
the type of posterior occlusion to be set before the anterior teeth are set
