The stability of a mandibular complete denture will be enhanced when:

A
The level of occlusal plane is above the dorsum of the tongue
B
The tongue rests on the occlusal surface
C
The lingual contour of the denture is concave
D
The posterior teeth on the denture have a broad buccolingual width
High-Yield Explanation
Ideally, the best stability occurs when the occlusal plane is parallel and anatomically oriented to the ridges. An occlusion plane that is too high, forces the tongue into a new position. This can disrupt the normal position of the floor of the mouth resulting in partial loss of the border seal.
