Abstract
Removable dies greatly facilitate fixed prosthesis fabrication and accurate marginal fit. The major difficulty when using removable dies is the correct positioning of the dowel pin in the stone base. This article describes a method for preparing removable dies that ensures accurate positioning of the dowel pin and provides external landmarks for precise location of the cuts to be made with the die saw. The method described is accurate, simple, inexpensive and can be performed in the dental laboratory.
