Summary There is no definitive method for the arrangement of artificial teeth in complete denture construction. A new method is introduced whereby the maxillary posterior teeth have been set in approximate positions mediolaterally similar to their natural predecessors. The procedure is based on a constant relationship derived from the natural dentition. Its clinical application proved to be suitable for the arrangement of artificial teeth for complete dentures with minimal errors.
