Achieving predictability and success in fabricating tissue-supported complete dentures requires a thorough understanding of key elements, such as determining and recording vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) and centric relation (CR). This continuing education course addresses concepts and techniques applicable to all types of tissue-supported complete dentures, including digital, implant-retained and traditional analog approaches. The course covers three common challenges encountered during denture fabrication and offers practical strategies for effective resolution.

• Discuss a simplified technique for accurately locating and recording CR using the gothic arch tracing device.
• Compare the differences between vertical dimensions of rest, speech and occlusion, and their roles in denture fabrication.
• Implement procedures for recording accurate VDO and CR using simplified techniques.
