  2. B. bilaterally in the area of maxillary tuberosity to the second molar.
  3. C. vestibularly in the area of incisal folds.
  4. D. bilaterally from the second molar to the first premolar.
  5. E. bilaterally vestibularly from the retromolar triangle to the area of first molars.

Wide opening tenses tissues around the coronoid process and pterygomandibular fold — which part of the upper tray border do they push?
