<strong>occlusion</strong> <strong>rims</strong>
<strong>Record</strong> <strong>bases</strong><br />
• Definition :<br />
• A record base or base plate is a temporary form<br />
representing the base of a denture. It is used in<br />
recording maxillomandibular relations and in the<br />
arrangement of the teeth.<br />
• Requirements :<br />
• should be rigid.<br />
• should be accurate.<br />
• should be stable.<br />
• the borders should be round & smooth as the borders of<br />
finished dentures.<br />
• should be thin at the crest ,labial & buccal slopes to<br />
provide space for tooth arrangement.
Objectives:<br />
• To retain the recording medium or device<br />
used for recording maxillomandibular<br />
relations.<br />
• To aid in transfer of accurate jaw relation<br />
ships to an articulator.<br />
• To enable the setting of artificial teeth for<br />
the trial denture.
Materials & methods :<br />
• It is generally agreed that<br />
maxillomandibular relations are difficult to<br />
record accurately on poorly fitting <strong>bases</strong><br />
fabricated from bulky material and from<br />
material that is subject to distortion and<br />
dimensional change. record <strong>bases</strong> are<br />
made of several different materials.
Types<br />
• Temporary record <strong>bases</strong>:<br />
They are discarded and replaced by denture base material,<br />
once their role in establishing jaw relation, teeth<br />
arrangement and try in is complete.<br />
Types of temporary record <strong>bases</strong>:<br />
• Shellac base plate<br />
• Reinforced shellac base plate<br />
• Cold cure acrylic resin<br />
• Visible light cure acrylic resin<br />
• Vacuum formed vinyl and polystyrene<br />
• Base plate wax
• Permanent record <strong>bases</strong>:<br />
They are not discarded and become part of the actual base<br />
of the finished complete denture.<br />
Types of permanent record <strong>bases</strong>:<br />
• Heat cure acrylic resin<br />
• Gold<br />
• Chromium-cobalt alloy<br />
• Chromium-nickel alloy
Shellac base plate<br />
Advantages:<br />
• They will adapt to intimate contact with the master cast.<br />
• Require short time for construction.<br />
• Inexpensive.<br />
• Can be corrected easily by reheating and readapting to<br />
the master cast.<br />
• Uniform thickness.
Disadvantages : Although shellac record <strong>bases</strong> are<br />
easily and quickly adapted, they are not<br />
considered satisfactory.<br />
• They warp, do not fit accurately, distort easily,<br />
lack rigidity, become brittle and break, and will<br />
not permit polishing of the borders
Shellac<br />
• Any undercuts are relieved, and separating medium is<br />
applied to the cast.<br />
• The shellac record base forms are manufactured in the<br />
shapes of the maxillary and mandibular arches.
• The forms are softened with an open flame and molded to<br />
the cast with an instrument or the fingers.<br />
• While the material is in a softened state, the excess is<br />
removed with scissors.<br />
• After hardening, the borders are smoothed but as a rule<br />
will not take a polish.
Reinforced shellac<br />
• Any undercuts are relieved,<br />
and separating medium is<br />
applied to the cast.<br />
• the manufactured form of<br />
shellac is softened with an<br />
open flame.<br />
• A flattened wire is contoured and adapted across the posterior palatal<br />
seal area of the maxillary record base and adapted to the lingual flange<br />
of the mandibular record base and incorporated in the base.<br />
• A thin layer of zinc oxide<br />
eugenol impression paste<br />
is spread over the tissue<br />
side of the base and<br />
seated on the cast in the<br />
manner of making<br />
impression.<br />
• The excess flash is<br />
removed and the borders<br />
are smoothed.
• Disadvantages : Although this procedure<br />
results in abase that is more rigid and<br />
stable than shellac but its still subject to<br />
distortion and breakage. It is bulky, the<br />
odor and taste of the paste are<br />
objectionable to some patients, and it is<br />
unsuitable for arrangement of teeth in<br />
cases of limited inter arch space.
Cold cure acrylic resin<br />
Advantages:<br />
• Good strength no need for reinforcement<br />
• Good dimensional stability<br />
• Does not wrap during manipulation<br />
• Closely fit to the master cast
Disadvantages:<br />
• Require more time in fabrication<br />
• Difficult to control the thickness<br />
• Residual monomer can cause irritation to<br />
oral tissues
Methods<br />
• Sprinkle on method<br />
• Finger adapted dough method<br />
• Flasking method<br />
• Stone mold method *<br />
• Wax-confined method *
Sprinkle on method<br />
• Any undercuts are relieved,<br />
and separating medium is<br />
applied to the cast.<br />
• Using an eye dropper apply<br />
the monomer to the cast,<br />
carefully add the polymer (salt<br />
and pepper technique) until a<br />
sufficient thickness is gained<br />
over the entire surface of the<br />
cast.<br />
• The processed base is<br />
removed from the cast,<br />
smoothed, and polished at the<br />
borders.
Finger adapted dough method<br />
• Any undercuts are relieved, and separating medium is applied to the<br />
cast.<br />
• The self curing resin is mixed according to manufacturer instructions<br />
• When it reach the dough stage, it is molded to the cast with<br />
instrument or fingers.<br />
• It is allowed to polymerized completely.<br />
• The processed base is removed from the cast, smoothed, and<br />
polished at the borders.
Flasking method<br />
• a wax pattern is constructed over the cast with a<br />
thickness and contour desired for complete<br />
denture.<br />
• The cast and pattern are flasked, the wax is<br />
eliminated, acrylic resin is packed and allowed<br />
to set under the pressure of clamps or press.<br />
• The processed base is removed from the cast,<br />
smoothed, and polished at the borders.
Visible Light cured acrylic resin<br />
• Any undercuts are relieved, and<br />
separating medium is applied to the cast.<br />
• Adapt a sheet of pink base plate material<br />
to the cast by fingers and prevent trapping<br />
of air.
• Extend the material to the<br />
depth of vestibule.<br />
• Cure the record base for<br />
4 minutes in the light cure<br />
unit. Carefully removed<br />
from the cast, invert and<br />
cure the tissue surface for<br />
4 minutes.<br />
• The processed base is<br />
removed from the cast,<br />
smoothed, and polished<br />
at the borders
Vacuum formed vinyl and polystyrene<br />
• Any undercuts are relieved, and<br />
separating medium is applied to the<br />
cast.<br />
• A sheet of base plate material placed<br />
over the cast and inserted in the<br />
vaccum chamber.<br />
• Electric heater switched to heat the<br />
sheet.<br />
• Turn on the vacuum. The sheet will<br />
adapt closely to the cast.<br />
• Switch of the heater and allow the<br />
record base to cool.<br />
• Remove the record base and cut the<br />
excess material.
Advantages<br />
• Easy to fabricate<br />
• Uniform thickness<br />
• Accurate adaptation<br />
to the master cast<br />
• Good rigidity<br />
Disadvantages<br />
• Expensive<br />
• Difficult to form smooth<br />
rounded borders
Base plate wax<br />
• Wet the cast<br />
• Soften the base plate wax over the<br />
flame and adapt it to master cast<br />
• Remove the excess wax and make<br />
the borders round and smooth.
Advantages<br />
• Easy and rapid<br />
method<br />
• Inexpensive<br />
available<br />
and<br />
Disadvantages<br />
• It lacks rigidity<br />
• It lacks dimensional<br />
stability
Heat processed acrylic resin<br />
• a wax pattern is constructed over the cast with a<br />
thickness and contour desired for complete denture.<br />
• The cast and pattern are flasked, the wax is eliminated,<br />
acrylic resin is packed and heat processed.<br />
• The processed base is removed from the cast,<br />
smoothed, and polished at the borders.
• Advantages : they are rigid, accurate,<br />
stable, not subject to distortion, and<br />
suitable for arrangement of teeth.<br />
• Disadvantages : require considerable time,<br />
more expensive.
Occlusion <strong>rims</strong><br />
• Definition : <strong>occlusion</strong> <strong>rims</strong> are occluding surfaces<br />
constructed on record <strong>bases</strong> or permanent denture<br />
<strong>bases</strong> to be used in recording jaw relations and for<br />
arranging teeth.<br />
• Requirements :<br />
• the position should be in the anticipated position of the<br />
artificial teeth.<br />
• it must be securely attached to the base.<br />
• the occlusal surface must be smooth and flat.<br />
• it should be contoured to support the lip and cheeks<br />
accurately.<br />
• all the surfaces should be smooth.
Uses :<br />
The <strong>occlusion</strong> <strong>rims</strong> are used :<br />
• to establish the level of the occlusal plane.<br />
• to establish the arch form.<br />
• to record the maxillary mandibular<br />
relations.<br />
• for arrangement of the teeth.
Wax Rim<br />

and have a flat occlusal<br />
surface. They are about<br />
as wide buccolingually<br />
as denture teeth – wider<br />
in the posterior, narrower<br />
in the anterior<br />
• The occlusal rim must be<br />
centered buccallingually<br />
over and parallel to the<br />
residual ridge crest.<br />
