Номер: DE0004218168A1
Принадлежит:

The first contact plate (1) is fixed at the patient upper jaw row of teeth, which is so adjusted using sleeve/pin elements, that marking flags (30,30') are aligned sagitally on the presumed hinge axis. The under jaw row of teeth includes a second contact plate (2). The adjusting system is adjusted, that the flags found at their side arms (18,19) come in to line. A stable three leg pin jaw articulated jig is produced across a sloping plane of the upper jaw contact plate and across a pin (4) of the second contact plate. The pin of the second contact plate when extended meets the sloping plane of the first contact plate, and also forms a stable three leg pin-jaw joint. The flags of the lower jaw arc make identifiable the rotation point, by a selected scanning with a rotational motion, which is transmitted on the skin of the patient as a coloured marking. ADVANTAGES - Simple and reliable using articulator. Ensures higher precision and saves time for operator.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TRANSFER OF A JAW MODEL IN RELATION TO A HINGE AXIS

Номер: CA0002673504C
Автор: KLETT, ROLF, KLETT ROLF
Принадлежит: DENTAL INNOVATION GMBH

The invention relates to a method and a registering system for the transfer of a jaw model in relation to a hinge axis, for example, in an articulator, and to a connection device for connecting a lower jaw adapter (1) to a measuring carrier (4), and a bite carrier (3) for producing a bite key. The invention is characterised in that the transfer of the mandibular joint geometry, especially the exact position of the hinge axis of the patient, can be carried out in a state of assembly or an articulator using only a hinge axis determination relative to the lower jaw of the patient. The transfer of the facial arc required until now in prior art is rendered superfluous by the invention. Moreover, the possibilities of use of the transfer in relation to the hinge axis are extended, modularised and simultaneously simplified and accelerated. Sources of error are eliminated, and the expenditure on equipment and costs of the transfer of the model can be critically reduced.

Device for recording the mandibular movements of a patient

Номер: CH0000658178A5
Принадлежит: JOZSEF BALOGH

The movements of the lower jaw of a patient during chewing or talking are measured using ultrasonic waves. The ultrasonic waves are emitted by three emitter heads (23, 24, 25) arranged on the front side of a first rod (21). The first rod (21) is fastened on a means fixed to the lower jaw of the patient, so that the mandibular movements are transmitted to the first rod (21). The ultrasonic waves emitted are received by ultrasonic receiver heads (26, 27, 28) arranged on a second rod (22). This second rod (22) is fastened on a means to be placed onto the head of the patient and cannot be moved. The ultrasonic waves received are passed into the housing (12) in which the ultrasonic waves are evaluated and stored. The matrix printer (11) located in the housing (12) prints the selected measurement results on a record strip. These are: sagittal movements, opening and closing movements, bite angle, lateral movements in degrees, and forward movements of the lower jaw in millimetres. ...

Номер: US0009642685B2

A method and system for the fabrication of dental articles includes at least two imaging and measuring devices, which measure and provide images of the internal and external structure of intra-oral objects in a patient's oral cavity. The outputs from these devices are linked so that the descriptions of the intra-oral objects and features, oral cavity and surrounding bone structure are stored in a system of reference positions. The system of reference positions functions as a “global positioning device” registering locations and orientations of the measuring and imaging device or probe relative to the intra-oral objects and bone structure and orientations of the resulting individual frames or scans in the global system of coordinates. Three-dimensional images, scans and/or maps of the oral cavity obtained from each device are pieced together to generate solid three-dimensional models of the intra-oral objects.
