Modified Split‐Cast Technique: A New,Timesaving Clinical Remount Technique

Interocclusal discrepancies can be eliminated by a clinical remount procedure, but most practitioners avoid it because of the time involved. This article introduces a new timesaving method, the modified split‐cast technique. It uses a semi‐adjustable articulator, tin foil as plaster separator, and an addition‐type, silicone bite‐registration material. The technician does most of the remounting procedures before the denture delivery appointment, so the dentist spends very little time chairside to complete the clinical remount procedure. Compared with the conventional and two other remounting techniques, the new technique is faster and easier to manipulate.
