The rationale of recording Centric Relation records is to establish guidelines as starting point to develop occlusion with artificial teeth in harmony with the various structures of masticatory apparatus including TMJ. It aids to maintain physiologic as well as anatomic health of tissues. When maximum intercuspation is coinciding with centric position, it provides stability to the prosthesis thereby preserving the health of remaining tissues (edentulous foundation, remaining natural teeth, musculature and TMJ) is accomplished. |
