# The position of the upper occlusal rim in the articulator is adjusted by :
(A) arbitrary means
(B) using face-bow
(C) visual examination
(D) adjusting the incisal pin
The correct answer is B. Using face bow.
The position of the upper occlusal rim in the articulator is adjusted by using a face-bow. A face-bow is a dental instrument that is used to transfer the position of the patient's maxillary arch to the articulator. The face-bow records the position of the maxilla in relation to the patient's hinge axis and transfers it to the articulator. This ensures that the upper model is mounted in the same position in the articulator as it is in the patient's mouth, allowing for accurate and precise restorations.
(A) Arbitrary means, (C) visual examination, and (D) adjusting the incisal pin are not accurate methods for adjusting the position of the upper occlusal rim in the articulator.
