Abstract

<p>In prosthetic treatment of molar crown restorations, to produce functional occlusal surface is very important. Even a crown that have accurately constructed in a laboratory based on a working model cannot reproduce the occlusal contact in the mouth. Dual-arch impression is a clinical technique that provides the intercuspal position on the occlusal surface of the crown. This technique simultaneously takes impression of the antagonist and abutment tooth; furthermore, it helps produce the accurate functional surface as it allows the model to be mounted. The functional generated path (FGP) method is another technique that accurately reproduces the occlusal position while considering the information about the functional contact harmonizing with eccentric occlusal position. Finally, I also introduce a combination of these techniques and digital equipment.</p>
