The term used when the denture teeth are set in wax is:
a. denture arrangement
b. denture setup
c. articulated setup
d. articulated arrangement
b. denture setup
To repair a broken denture, a thin layer is ground off. Next, monomer is applied to the surfaces so that:
a. some of the set material is dissolved
b. the setting reaction of the repair is accelerated
c. the finishing and polishing of the repair is made ea
a. some of the set material is dissolved
Heat-activated acrylic resin systems are very similar to chemically activated systems. the major difference (or exception) is
a. heat-activated systems have much less strength than chemically activated systems
b. more inhibitor is present in the liquid of
d. no chemical activator is present in the liquid of heat-activated systems
T/F
Most denture teeth used today are acrylic rather than porcelain. porcelain teeth are softer than acrylic teeth and do not cause excessive wear on natural opposing teeth.

b. teeth, clasps, and connectors
c. clasps, connectors, and mesh
d. teeth, denture base, connectors, and clasps
c. clasps, connectors, and mesh
Cross-linking of acrylic resins will improve the mechanical properties. The most important or beneficial property it would improve would be
a. resilience
b. toughness
c. fatigue
d. creep
b. toughness
T/F
Mandibular dentures are easier to wear than maxillary. Saliva helps to improve the suction needed to hold a denture in place.
First statement false, second statement true
The wax rims used for denture construction serve to determine the patient's
a. midline
b. plane of occlusion
c. size o denture teeth
d. all of the above
d. all of the above
The acrylic resin of a partial denture is processed the same way as a complete denture EXCEPT
a. it takes less time because fewer teeth are involved
b. the finishing and polishing technique is much different
c. the acrylic resin must flow through and arou
c. the acrylic resin must flow through and around the mesh of the framework
Place in order
___casts and rims are mounted on an articulator
___the master cast and denture setup are embedded in stone within the denture flask
___acrylic resin is mixed and placed in the mold, and the mold is then compressed
___the patient has the wax
