The loss ofteeth, because of the effect on facial appearance, often createstremendous psycho logic trauma for a patient. There are, however, basic principles to guide the dentist in providing the patient with a natural looking result. Esthetics goes much further than the simple placement of teeth in occlusion rims.The dentist must consider both the anatomy and physiology of theface, as well as artistic principles, to achieve a natural lookingdenture. Dentures determine the appearance of the lower one third ofthe face in edentulous patients. The teeth and their supporting basesare responsible for maintaining a pleasing and normal facialexpression for they hold the lips and facial musculature in properphysiologic position.
