Abstract

Trial dentures are constructed by setting up teeth on shellac or acrylic resin bases. These dentures are assessed in the mouth so that any errors can be identified and corrected before the dentures are finished. In addition to allowing the dentist to check all previous recordings, this stage also permits the patient to express an opinion on the appearance of the dentures so that modifications can be carried out where necessary.
