with a view to proposing concrete grounds for the measurement of the rest vertical dimension on the face in the establishment of the vertical dimension of occlusion for edentulous patients , 20 complete denture-wearing subjects were made to take a clinical rest position by 4 different denture-wearing patterns , i.e . setting both dentures ( ul ) , setting maxillary denture only ( u ) , setting mandibular denture only ( l ) and completely edentulously ( o ) , and were measured for the distance between 2 points on the face by slide calipers masking the reading part .
