The primary key to success with complete dentures and overdentures is delivering a refined occlusal scheme. Whether that is balanced, lingualized or a neutral zone technique; all of them rely on an accurate centric relation record for success.

This presentation will provide a technique to overcome the difficulties associated with centric relation in the completely edentulous patient.
