[Located hinge-axis or conventional hinge-axis?].

Abstract

The purpose of this study is first, to evaluate the influence of locating the horizontal transverse axis of rotation of the mandible, both kinematically and conventionally, and second, to determine the influence of the thickness of the wax check-bite, as obtained in the centric relation, upon the functional analysis of the occlusion. The results show that the influence of any displacement of the horizontal transverse axis of rotation of the mandible is smaller, within a circle with a 6-mm radius, than that of the thickness of the wax check-bite obtained in the centric relation.

Prosthodontic procedures for implant reconstruction. 1. Diagnostic procedures.

The University of Sydney Dental School and more recently the Implant Centre have been treating patients with the Brånemark Osseointegration Implant System since 1981. Success depends on close cooperation between surgeon and prosthodontist. This paper describes specific prosthodontic treatment planning procedures based on a general knowledge of prosthodontics, and detailed methods for determining the position, length and alignments of the implants for a specific case by the use of radiographic and surgical templates.
