[Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) ### **Essential Checkpoints for Denture Wax Bite Try-In** 1. **Midline Alignment** ✅ *(Mark the midline on the wax bite for accurate reference.)* 2. **Vertical Dimension of Occlusion (VDO) Adjustment** - If the VDO is excessive, reduce the wax accordingly. - If the VDO is insufficient, add Blue Bite to the required height for proper occlusal balance. 3. **Centric Relation (CR) Stability** 4. **Lip Support & Facial Aesthetics** *(A critical factor that must be assessed.)* - If the arch appears overly bulky, trim the wax bite to achieve a more natural contour. - If the arch is too narrow, creating a sunken facial appearance, apply Blue Bite to the facial and buccal areas to expand the arch appropriately. 5. **Occlusal Plane Alignment** *(Indicate key reference points on the wax bite.)* 6. **Posterior Teeth Position & Overjet/Overbite Evaluation** 7. **Phonetics & Speech Assessment** *(Ensure proper articulation and clarity in pronunciation.)* 8. **Wax Rim Retention & Stability** *(Perform a Right Bite to confirm optimal retention and fit.)* 💡 **At a minimum, checkpoints 1, 2, 4, 5, and 8 should be carefully evaluated to ensure a functional, stable, and aesthetically pleasing final denture.**   #### [Kevin Cho](https://blog.jugenesis.com/author/kevin-cho) #### COMMENTS ## RELATED ARTICLES [![logo_orange](https://48733365.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/48733365/logo_orange.svg)](https://blog.jugenesis.com/) **Crafting Excellence, Building Trust!** -
