RESUMO
The use of a facebow transfer is an important first step in making jaw relation records. Equally important is to make a careful study of the patient's existing dentures. This article suggests a technique that permits an accurate measurement of the patient's inter-ridge distance. A measurement can be made of the existing dentures, modified existing dentures, record bases, and trial dentures. Treatment "hints" are offered to enhance the use and application of the data collected during treatment.

The purpose of this article is to illustrate a technique adapting a light-curing composite resin veneer and an opaquing medium with chemical adhesion properties to a partial denture framework in a patient with severely worn dentition. Composite resin veneers with favorable wear properties and esthetics are useful materials for restoring occlusions for overlay removable partial dentures.

The ultimate goal of a prosthodontic service is the placement and maintenance of prostheses which are in biologic and functional harmony with the supporting tissues and remaining teeth. The combination impression and occlusal registration technique minimizes clinical and technical procedures which might introduce errors. If accurately managed, this technique will provide optimum occlusion and mucosal support for extension-base removable partial dentures.
