The geometry of the arbitrary hinge axis as it relates to the occlusion

Investigation of a possible relationship between kinematic points and condylar attachments of the lateral ligaments

“…Likewise, it would even be wrong to use them for reproduction of pure hinge movements that are necessary to find premature contacts. If a cast is mounted on the articulator in relation to the kinematic axis, tooth contacts of the model would deviate from those in the patient's mouth ( Brotman, 1960; Zuckermann, 1982) because, as apparent from Fig. 4, kinematic points were considerably displaced from the hinge points in most of the examined joints and, thus, also the corresponding axes did not coincide.…”

A Modified Technique for Orientation of an Adhesive Retained Ear Prosthesis: Case Report

“…Bu çalışmada amaç modifiye edilmiş bir oryantasyon yöntemini sunmak ve önceki çalışmalar ile sonuçları tartışmaktır. [4][5][6][7][8] With the utilization of these methods, implant-retained or adhesive-retained prostheses can be properly orientated.…”

Eccentric Interchangeability of the Semi‑Adjustable Articulator: A Pilot Study

“…The 5mm error in hinge axis produced a 0.2mm anterior posterior occlusal discrepancy when measured at the second molar (Weinberg 1959;Weinberg 1963). The level of occlusal discrepancy reported by Weinberg is commonly cited as acceptable for a general practitioner (Wilkie 1979;Zuckerman 1982;Simpson et al 1984). Wachtel and Curtis Wachtel and Curtis 1987) described the limitations of semi-adjustable articulators reporting positive errors are most likely in the horizontal plane.…”
