The traditional denture fabrication technique using resin teeth with metal occlusal surfaces is rather complicated and time consuming. To improve this, a new two-piece artificial resin tooth has been developed. The teeth are arranged on the wax denture and processed in the usual manner. The patient is allowed to use the completed denture for a period of time to harmonize the occlusal surfaces with oral function. The occlusal portions of the teeth are then separated from the base and invested as a resin pattern for casting. The new cast occlusal portions are reset on the base portions with a resin adhesive.
