  • Title: Centric relation as the treatment position.
    Author: Gilboe DB.
    Journal: J Prosthet Dent; 1983 Nov; 50(5):685-9. PubMed ID: 6580438.
    Abstract:
    Centric relation should be considered as "the most superior position of the mandibular condyles with the central bearing area of the disk in contact with the articular surfaces of the mandibular condyles and the articular eminences." This relationship is justifiable on analysis of the morphology and function of temporo-mandibular joint structures.
