Occlusal Plane

• Related to muscle

• Missed this

Relates to the direction of the closing arc

Want it low enough in the back it doesn't interfere w/ ant guidance

Even with minimal path, molar plane is flatter than as it travels past eminence

4inch radius arc works for everybody!

• Simplified occlusal plane analyzer

If curve is too high, posterior teeth can seperate anterior teeth

• • Steep in ant guidance: will wear out ant teeth
