The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of an arbitrary and true hinge axis on the Bennett shift and the horizontal condylar path inclination. Ten completely edentulous subjects were selected for this study. For each subject, true and arbitrary hinge axis positions were located. Whip Mix Quick Set Recorder was used to measure the Bennett shift and the horizontal condylar path inclination. The Bennett shift and condylar path inclinations were recorded two times, first using the arbitrary and secondary using the kinematic hinge axis as the starting point for recording. The result of this study showed that there were no statistical differences between the two measures of the Bennett shift and horizontal condylar path inclination.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
