Review of Literature
• Berry’s Biometric Ratio Method [1906]– Inverted CI resembles face form– Tooth size 1/16 face width & 1/20 face length
• Clap’s Tabular Dimension Table Method [1910]– Tooth size based on six anterior teeth– Enabled to specify mold
• Cigrande [1913]– Outline form of fingernail - Outline form of Central
incisor.

• Pound E. (1951) - dentures should be designed according to the principle of nature.
• French A. (1951) - teeth should be arranged according to the face form, arch form, width of mouth and ridge relation.
• Frush & Fisher (1955 – 59) - Sex, Personality and Age of the patient.

• Martone A. L. (1964) - loss of the teeth & their supporting structures produce radical changes in facial appearances.
• Curtis T. & Shaw E. (1987) - the esthetic results require more than the size, color, position and arrangement of complete denture teeth.
• Golden proportion - by Levin

• Ward (2000) - Recurring Esthetic Dental (RED) proportion based on the different heights of the maxillary anterior teeth.
• However in a study: To evaluate the validity of Recurring Esthetic Dental proportion in natural dentition, J Conserv Dent. 2011 Jul-Sep; 14(3): 314–317., authors Shetty etal, found that RED proportion was not seen in natural dentition.

Methods Used to Select Artificial Anterior Teeth for the Edentulous Patient: A Historical Overview – Selten etal, Int J Prosthodont 1999:12:51
Concluded that to date, no universally reliable method of determining tooth form has
been found. The Williams classification (1914) is the most universally accepted method of determining anterior tooth form.
![Page 12: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Assessment of Dental Appearance Following Changes in Incisor Angulation
Wolfart etal, Int J Prosthodont 2004;17:150–154.
• They evaluated the assessment of attractiveness of standardized changes in incisor angulation of different tooth arrangements and found that tooth arrangements showing central incisors with ideal axes are more attractive, than angulation of one or
both central incisors. And slight changes in the angulation of one or both
lateral incisors do not influence attractiveness negatively.

• Varjao etal, in their study on Intercommissural width as a guide for selection of anterior maxillary teeth ( Int J Prosthodont, 2005; 18;513-515)– Found that a weak correlation exists between the
corners of mouth and distal of canines and hence use of corners of mouth for selection of artificial teeth is generally inaccurate.

• Jaffar Abduo, in a systematic review (Int J Prosthodont 2013;26;26-33) on occlusal schemes for complete dentures has concluded that primarily as per patient acceptance, posterior tooth arrangement in conventional bilateral balanced occlusion and lingualized bilaterally balanced occlusion, are preferable to flat teeth arranged in monoplane occlusion.

High Lip Line
• Highest point of upper lip when smiling
• Cervical necks lie at or above this line
• If shorter teeth are selected, esthetics compromised

Shade Selection• Along side of nose – basic hue, value &
chroma.
• Under lips – only incisal edge exposed – effect of colour with mouth relaxed.
• Under lips – only cervical end covered – smile.
• Use of Squint test.

Posterior tooth selection
• Size • Form• Shade
![Page 29: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Size of Posterior Teeth• Buccolingual Width– Sufficient to act as a table to
hold food.– Less than width of natural
teeth.– Not to encroach on tongue
space and buccal corridor.– Limits forces directed to ridge.
![Page 30: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• Mesiodistal Width– Edentulous space available.– Placed as far as possible posteriorly.– Not over beginning of ascending area of ramus
and retromolar pad.
![Page 31: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
• Occlusogingival Height– Determined by available inter ridge space, occlusal
plane and height of anterior teeth.– Teeth with largest possible vertical length that can
be used without grinding are preferred for aesthetics.
![Page 32: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Form of Posterior Teeth• Anatomic Teeth– Cusp teeth.– Simulate occlusal surface.– Varying degrees of inclinations (10°, 20°, 30°, 40°)– Standard is 33°– Cusp incline < 33°, is termed semi-anatomic teeth.– Advantages.– Disadvantages.
10°
20°
30°

Shade Of Posterior Teeth
• Harmonize with the shade of the anterior teeth.
• Bulk influences the shade of teeth– select a slightly lighter shade
for the premolars
![Page 35: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Selection of Tooth Material
• Resin– Composite Resin– Acrylic Resin• Monolithic• Cross – linked• IPN linked
• Porcelain – When aesthetics are paramount– Adequate interarch space is available.
![Page 36: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Posterior Tooth Forms – Historical Development
• Anatomic teeth– Trubyte teeth (1914) by
Gysi– Channel tooth (1927) by
Sears– Metal insert in resin
(1942) by Vincent– Crossblades (1961) by
Sosin
![Page 38: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
• Non-anatomic teeth– Inverted cusp tooth (1929) by Hall- sharp
concenteric ridges around cup like depressions.
– True-kusp (1929) by Meyerson – buccal lingual ridges with sluiceways between them.
– Chopping block (1934) by Nelson
– Non-lock (1939) by Swenson
– Vitallium Occlusal (1946) by Hardy

Teeth Arrangement
• Anatomical landmarks• Ridge relation• Balanced occlusion • Neutral zone
![Page 40: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Anatomical landmarks
• Residual ridge– Position in relation to ridge due
to resorptive pattern.• Arch form– Square, tapering & ovoid arch
forms
![Page 41: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• Retromolar pad– Too low a occlusal plane causes tongue biting and
too high a occlusal plane can cause instability and strain.
![Page 42: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
• Parotid Duct– Maxillary first molar
• Rugae – Labial surface of canine
10.5mm
• Incisive papilla– Midline– Central incisor– Perpendicular line
![Page 43: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Teeth Arrangement for Class I Ridge Relation
• Wax rim contours aid selection and setting:– Occlusal vertical dimension– Angulation of facial rims affects lip support– Overjet
• Place reference marks on the occlusion rims to aid in tooth selection and placement.

• The midline of the dental arch – the centre of face
• Labial contour – blend with the contour of face.
• Rotation on long axis – varies depending on arch form
![Page 49: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
49
Maxillary lateral incisor
• Set at angle of 50 to the perpendicular • Incisal edge is about 1 mm short of the
horizontal plane• Labial surface is inside at the cervical end • Distal half of rotated slight lingually

Second Premolar
• Long axis–parallel to vertical axis
• Both cusp are about 02 mm above the horizontal plane

The First Molar
• Long axis– leans lingually when viewed from the front – mesially when viewed from the side
• All the cusps are at higher level above the horizontal plane than those of second premolar

Setup for class II & III cases
![Page 76: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Set up in class II jaw relations• In this setting, the flattened lingual cusp of upper
premolars occludes with the flattened buccal cusp of lower premolars and a large buccal horizontal overlap occurs in the bicuspid area.
• Upper molars are set with their lingual cusp in the modified central cusp of the lower teeth.
• Posteriors should have a centric occlusion with stable non-deflective stops.
![Page 77: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Setup in Class III relation• If ridges are edge to edge, then anterior teeth are
also placed edge to edge.
• In cases of extreme protrusion, – negative or reverse horizontal overlap is used,– a larger lower tooth mold can be used,– Interchange of upper and lower teeth– First premolar may be eliminated from upper arch– Transverse ridges of upper posteriors are grinded away
to eliminate mesiodistal interlocking.

Balanced Occlusion • After centric balance is achieved, teeth
arrangement is modified to achieve eccentric balance.
• At least a semi-adjustable articulator is required.
• For lateral balance, buccal cusps of posterior teeth should contact on working side and on non-working side, contact should occur between mandibular buccal & maxillary palatal cusps.
![Page 79: Teeth arrangement](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082218/588922981a28ab77528b5813/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
• To develop balanced occlusion in Protrusion– With the anterior teeth edge to edge, contacts
should simultaneously be established in the posterior teeth.
– Factors affecting balance• Condylar inclination cannot be altered.• Incisal guidance can be manipulated limitedly.• Cuspal inclination is determined by selection of teeth.• So mainly, the anterio-posterior Curve of Spee
influences protrusive balance.• Thus, steeper the condylar inclination, steeper should
be the compensating curve with low cuspal inclination, to achieve protrusive balance, while maintaining the centric contact.

Setup in neutral zone technique
• Neutral zone is recorded.• Impression is indexed.• Teeth arrangement is guided by index.• Posterior teeth may require to be trimmed
lingually so that they fit into index space.• Polished surfaces of denture are also
contoured to replicate record.

Characterization
• Subtle chips ,stains make teeth look more natural
• Highest quality of art is to conceal art

Conclusion
• Selection and Arrangement of teeth is an art based upon biomechanical factors, governing the ultimate success of dentures.
