One embodiments of the present subject matter include a method that includes fixing a top pantograph to a patient via clutches to the top teeth of the patient, fixing a bottom pantograph to a patient via clutches to the bottom teeth of the patient, optically monitoring the bite of the patient by monitoring the relation of the top pantograph to the bottom pantograph during a bite cycle, storing data relating to the actual bite storing patient data including a three-dimensional model including a top teeth model and a bottom teeth model, storing a digital top pantograph model associated with the top pantograph, storing a digital bottom pantograph model associated with the bottom pantograph, digitally pairing the bite data, the top pantograph model and the bottom pantograph model to the patient data, and digitally modeling the bite.

For static fixation of the jaw relation in intraoral recording, a recording instrument set is used that includes a pin holder with a vertically adjustable stylus for placement in one jaw, and a writing or recording plate with an alignment clamp mounted on it for placement in the other jaw. The stylus, initially vertically locked on the pin holder, can be locked in stationary fashion in the ascertained jaw relation in the alignment clamp. By means of this locking, the jaw relation is keyed, and the use of hardenable material such as molding plaster previously used for this purpose can be dispensed with. This dental treatment process can thus be done in less time and with less material, and once the jaw relation has been keyed it is retained reliably until further processing in the dental laboratory. This locking can be attained particularly advantageously if a pan bearing that receives the lower end of the stylus, embodied as a writing ball, is provided in the alignment clamp. This affords simple options for locking that are based essentially on the fact that after the introduction of the writing ball the entry cross section of the pan bearing is reduced far enough that the writing ball is firmly retained in the pan bearing.

A training device for therapeutically exercising a protruding mandible of an edentulous individual to reposition the same to an optimal position. The training device is part of a total system for fitting an edentulous individual with dentures that includes first repositioning the mandible to its optimal position using the training device, and then maintaining the repositioned mandible in place using dentures having a concave masticating surface and a ridge along one edge of the masticating surface.

A tracing device for mandibular movement comprises mainly an upper jaw plate, a lower jaw plate and a coupling device, and the device is able to be mounted in the oral cavity of a patient regardless of whatever the patient is dentulous or edentulous. A recording method therewith can be carried out without elevation of the occlusal vertical dimension of a patient. An accurate recordiing of the jaw relation is taken by recording on the device an occlusal vertical dimension and an incisal guide angle which are settled in a prosthesis, and recording the mandibular position three dimensionally. Another feature of the device is to enable the reproduction of the record on the articulator. By recording the mandibular position and the mandibular movement with the device, the occlusal reconstruction based on the full mouth rehabilitation which has been regarded conventionally a most difficult prothesis method is carried out accurately.

A microcapsule for use in the treatment of dental malocclusions/misalignments based on plastic splints or aligners. The microcapsule is a few μm, such as 0.5 μm to 200 μm in size and has a shell made of plastic or glass or ceramic, the shell is filled with a liquid in the interior, and the shell breaks open when it experiences a force and releases the liquid, which can be detected optically, for example, by a color change or illumination with UV light.

The techniques described herein relate to exemplary indirect bonding trays for orthodontic appliances. An example indirect bonding tray comprises an occlusal base having an outer perimeter and defining a first impression conforming to a first occlusal tooth surface and a second impression conforming to at least a portion of a second occlusal tooth surface. The example indirect bonding tray further comprises a buccal wall defining a well to releasably engage an orthodontic appliance, the buccal wall extending outwards beyond the outer perimeter of the occlusal base, wherein: the buccal wall and the well are in a first region of the indirect bonding tray associated with the first impression, the first region is adjacent to a second region of the indirect bonding tray associated with the second impression, and an outer wall of the second region extends to the outer perimeter of the occlusal base.

A system for fabricating a dental restoration to restore a tooth at a restoration site in a dentition of a patient is disclosed. The dentition includes a restoration dental arch and an opposing dental arch. The restoration dental arch include the restoration site and the opposing dental arch is opposite the restoration dental arch. The system includes an impression apparatus, a motion capture apparatus, an interface apparatus, and a restoration design system. The impression apparatus is configured to capture an impression of the dentition of the patient. The motion capture apparatus is configured to capture a plurality of location data points that represent the locations of the opposing dental arch relative to the restoration dental arch. The interference model generation system is configured to generate an interference model for the restoration site. The restoration design system is for designing a restoration using the interference model.

摘要:
An interproximal articulation holder (10) has an arm (12) having a handle (11) at one end and an oppositely disposed holding head (16). The holding head is part of a marking portion (13) which also includes a piece of articulation film (18) having a generally rectangular shaped exposed area (18″) extending beyond the holding head (16). The arm or holding head may include a score or score line (19) which enables the arm or head to be manually bent at an angle. This arm may also include forming notches (20) to aid in the bending process. The handle, arm and holding head may be formed of two or more outer layers of stock paper (21) laminated together with an inner layer of the wax coated articulation film positioned or sandwiched between the stock paper layers.
