Spanish term or phrase: Encerado de caracterización estética en cera
I 'm translating undergraduate dentistry program study topics from Spanish (Colombia) to English (UK).
During the sixth academic period, one of the classes students take is Removable Prosthodontics.
The syllabus for that course consists of a list of bullets with brief descriptions of topics and laboratory activities.
Below is a relevant excerpt of the bullet list verbatim.

*Encerado de caracterización estética en cera.
*ENMUFLADO: Procedimiento para enmuflado y acrilado de una prótesis total, recuperación del acrilado.

Wax model denture for evaluation of aesthetics


Explanation:
Typically, before the final denture is made, a wax model of the proposed denture is made, to see how it is going to look, & make sure the bite is correct.
See e.g. here: http://www.denturesguide.com/wax-model-denture/
Or here (see third Appointment): https://denturecareexpress.com/dentures/
