Semiadjustable articulators are used in the fabrication of complete dentures and programmed using interocclusal records. Interocclusal records made in the centric, protrusive, right and left lateral excursive positions are generally used in programming the articulator. A split upper cast is an essential prerequisite, and the space appearing between the maxillary cast and the split helps in verifying proper seating of the cast during the programming. This article describes a simple method of stabilizing the interocclusal records and restricting the possibility of movement in the split cast. |
