ProsthodonticsExplanation: While it is important for the vertical
dimension of occlusion (VDO) to be satisfactory, and for the patient's
appearance and denture base extension to be adequate, the statement that
"centric occlusion should not coincide with centric relation" is not a necessary
condition for relining. In fact, in many cases, centric occlusion and centric
relation should coincide for optimal function. Therefore, option 2 is the
correct answer.

ProsthodonticsThe distal palatal termination of the complete denture is dictated by the vibrating line.

ProsthodonticsTreatment of choice for a patient with a maxillary complete denture with severe bilateral tuberosity undercuts is to remove the tissue on only one side if possible.
