Accurate interocclusal registrations are an integral part of prosthetic rehabilitation. The success of rehabilitation treatment is closely related to an exact reproduction of occlusal relation in the articulator during all stages of treatment. This article describes a method of making an accurate interocclusal record when the most distal tooth is an abutment of a fixed partial denture. In this method a centric stop or vertical stop is prepared to maintain the vertical dimension of occlusion and to act as third point of reference for a stable occlusal relationship when occluding the definitive casts on articulators.
