RESUMO

This dissertation aims at checking the validity of some anatomical references used to determine the height of the occlusal plane when manufacturing complete dentures based on the neutral zone or muscular balance technique. The association of the deglutition, metric, esthetic and phonetic methods was also evaluated to determine the occlusal vertical dimension. The 42 individuais who received double dentures and used them for 15 days for adaptation had a teleradiography taken at lateral norm, with the occlusal surfaces and incisal edges of the lower teeth previously marked with a radio-opaque substance. A cephalometric outline within the toothless individuals limitations was done, and the results were compared to the parameters universally accepted as normal cephalometric standards. The Ricketts Analysis was mainly used to compare results, but only when it suited our purposes, and it was complemented by other research references: The results obtained after statistical evaluation show: 1- When compared to cephalometric standards, the height of the lower lip at rest, the largest diameter of the tongue, the tip of the tongue, half the retromolar pad and the relative parallelism between the upper and lower alveolar rim are sure references to determine the height of the occlusal plane when manufacturing double total prosthesis based on the neutral zone or muscular balance technique. 2- The association of deglutition, metric, esthetic and phonetic methods to determine the occlusal vertical dimension in edentulous individuais receiving double complete dentures has also proved efficient when compared to cephalometric standards. 3- The formulas below can be used as another reference to determine occlusal vertical dimension in patients receiving a complete dentures: ratio anterior nasal spine I mentum = 1.3 ratio nasion I anterior nasal spine or ratio nose basis I mentum = 1.19 ratio eye external corner I buccal commissure
