  • Title: True horizontal or gravity plane registration for transferring the maxillary scan into the virtual articulator by using a facial scanner without the need for an additional device.

    Journal: J Prosthet Dent; 2024 Aug 16; ():. PubMed ID: 39153940.
    Abstract:
    Different reference planes can be used to transfer the maxillary cast into the analog articulator, including the true horizontal or gravity reference plane. Different techniques have been described to record the gravity reference plane for transferring the maxillary scan into the virtual articulator by using facial scanning techniques. However, these digital facebow procedures require the use of an extraoral scan body system, printed reference device, or orientation reference board. This manuscript describes a technique for recording the gravity reference plane by using a facial scanner without the use of an additional device. This technique aims to reduce the clinical time needed to capture a patient's digital data and minimize the laboratory time needed to integrate the virtual patient and transfer the maxillary scan into the virtual articulator.
