A high percentage of dental restorative procedures failure is attributed to the failure of maintaining the patient's occlusal patterns, and this fact becomes more and more valid as the restoration is more and more extensive.

Among the symptoms of inaccurate bite registration: i. Functional difficulty, may reach the extend of refusal and rejection of the assumed restoration ii.
