  • Title: A prototype articulator for planning orthognathic and craniofacial surgery.
    Author: Angelillo JC, Georgiade NG, Rabe WC.
    Journal: J Oral Surg; 1977 Oct; 35(10):847-9. PubMed ID: 269238.
    Abstract:
    Current techniques and hinge-type articulators do not provide sufficient information and versatility for the planning of orthognathic and craniofacial surgery. Dental articulators either require plaster of paris for mounting or they do not accommodate movement of both casts in all directions of space. A prototype articulator that satisfies movement of both casts in all directions of space is successfully being used as an adjunct in planning orthognathic and craniofacial surgery. There is a need for future development of sophisticated and accurate armamentarium that can be used as an aid in planning and designing surgical procedures.
