The purposes of this study were to classify the described digital facebow techniques for transferring the maxillary cast into the semi-adjustable virtual articulator based on the digital data acquisition technology used and to review the reported accuracy values of the different digital facebow methods described.

Abstract The analysis of the mandibular range of motion (ROM) includes the evaluation of maximum opening, deviation upon opening, and amplitude of the left and right excursive movements and protrusion. Conventionally, ROM assessment has been directly measured in the patient’s mouth by using a ROM ruler. The development of jaw tracking systems, such as magnetometry and photometric devices, allows the digital assessment of the mandibular ROM.

Abstract Optical jaw tracking systems are designed to record the static maxillomandibular relationship and the mandibular motion of a patient, including excursive movements and mastication pattern. This digital data acquisition technology can be integrated into diagnostic and treatment planning procedures, as well as into designing dental prostheses.

Abstract Objective To describe a technique for fabricating an additively manufactured maxillary occlusal device using a complete digital workflow. Clinical Considerations The maxillary occlusal device design may include an anterior platform to guide the positioning of the mandible in a reproducible position for facilitating the delivery procedure.
