This book provides a detailed exploration of interocclusal relations and records, essential in prosthodontics and restorative dentistry. It begins with an overview of TMJ anatomy, muscles of mastication, and dentition, establishing the foundation for understanding mandibular dynamics. Emphasis is placed on centric relation (CR), centric occlusion (CO), and maximal intercuspation, with definitions traced through various editions of the Glossary of Prosthodontic Terms. The book differentiates physiological and functional interpretations of CR and introduces eccentric relations such as protrusive and lateral positions. Various interocclusal recording materials are reviewed, including waxes, ZOE, elastomers, and resins, along with advanced techniques like bimanual manipulation, Gothic arch tracing, Lucia Jig, and leaf gauge. It also highlights concepts like freedom in centric and the role of neuromuscular deprogramming. Concluding with clinical recommendations, it emphasizes the significance of accurate interocclusal records in denture fabrication, full-mouth rehabilitation, and implant prosthodontics.
