Abstract: A set of artificial molar teeth composed of two respective upper and two respective lower premolars and two respective upper and two respective lower molars, wherein at each pair of superimposed teeth the one tooth has a mastication furrow or groove and the other tooth at the side of the gum possesses a protuberance coacting with the mastication groove of the one tooth. In order to realize successive contact of the teeth of the first premolars to the second molars there is provided a stepped reduction of the tooth angle and/or a stepped reduction in the size of the friction path.
