Objective To study the influence of cervical settling method on marginal accuracy of wax patters. Methods 24 wax patterns were made on the standard cast specimens and round capsules of which twelve patters were made with the method of cervical settling（experiment group）, twelve patters were made with the method of wax dripping（control group）. Marginal accuracy of patterns were measured before sublation, sublation half an hour and twenty-four hours. Results The results revealed that marginal accuracy had significant difference between the cervical settling methods and wax dripping methods（P
