Authors measured the distance between frontal vibration line (VL-frontal line of soft palate flexion) and foveolae palatinae (FR-palatinal pit at transition from hard into soft palate). Antropometric measurements performed on 382 patients required construction of measurement equipment of gracile dimension and high precision. The results of the study were presented in tables and analyssed by routine statistical methodology. In most cases (92, 3%) VL presented in front of palatal pits at the average distance of 1, 79 mm. In 38, 7% of the cases, absolute or partial coexistence of these parameters was found, which suggest conditional acceptance of FP during VL localization. The significance of observed relationships between VL and FP is particularly prominent in the cases where it is difficult to determine possible pharyngeal border of medial part of complete denture. Covering of FP with 0, 5-1 mm medial part of pharyngeal edge represents reconciliating and biologically justifiable view between two extreme conceptions of pharyngeal extension of complete denture. .
