Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1982
SummaryTen edentulous adults were investigated to learn more about the preferred vertical dimension of occlusion (PVDO) and the comfortable zone. A screw jack device was employed, using the forced‐choice and external approach methods. The dimensional discrimination ability of each subject was assessed at the mean PVDO, and at points 3 mm above and ...

Establishment of vertical dimension

The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1955
The achievement of correct vertical dimension is one of the most neglected steps in the preparation for complete den­ tures when compared with the highly improved methods of obtaining impres­ sions, centric relation or articulation. Nevertheless, the procedure to establish vertical dimension is as important as any other; an error in its determination ...
