Cross arch teeth arrangement method is long being used for the management of abnormal jaw relation. The jaw relationship with broad mandibular arch may require a cross-bite occlusion of part or all of the artificial teeth, depending upon the extent of the discrepancies in their sizes. The cross-bite arrangement of anatomic posterior teeth is one in which the maxillary teeth are placed lingual to the buccal cusps of the mandibular teeth. There are many variations of the cross-bite relationship. The arrangement of artificial teeth is an art based on the biomechanical factors governing the ultimate success of the dentures. This article discusses prosthodontic rehabilitation of a broader posterior ridge of mandible with normal anterior relation with morphologic teeth management.
