This study was conducted to compare the condylar guidance of edentulous patients obtained from protrusive records with gothic arch tracing and after arranging the anterior teeth. Methodology: A total of 20 subjects, with mean age of 55 years, having edentulous maxillary and mandibular arches were selected. In method A, Protrusive inter occlusal records were made at 6 mm of protrusion which were transferred to a semi–adjustable articulator to obtain the values of condylar guidance. In method B, Protrusive inter occlusal record were made by instructing the patient to protrude to edge to edge position. The records were transferred to the articulator and right and left condylar guidance values were recorded. Results: The mean condylar guidance angle obtained from method A was higher compared to method B. Conclusion:  The mean condylar guidance  for each patient obtained from method A was more and statistically highly significant when compared to method B.
