Part III of this four‐part series about nonanatomic denture tooth development traces the evolution of this movement from the mid‐1930s through the World War II era up to the early 1950s. By this time, the general preference for posterior denture occlusion had shifted from anatomic to nonanatomic teeth, and all the major denture tooth manufacturing companies listed at least one nonanatomic design in their inventories.
