All of the following statements concerning major connectors are correct, except
- at least 8 mm of vertical space between the active floor of the mouth and gingival margins of the teeth is required for a mandibular lingual bar major connector
- in the maxillary arch, the border of the major connector should be at least 6 mm from the gingival crevice of the teeth
- in the mandibular arch, the border of the lingual bar major connector should not be closer than 2 - 3 mm to the gingival margins
- the border of the maxillary major connector should be scalloped to mimic the gingival crevices of the teeth
- the border of the mandibular major connector should run parallel to the gingival margin of the teeth
