Mandibular movement recordings and articulator adjustments simplified. 1979

H C Lundeen

Research data from several hundred patient recordings using the Lee method have been utilized to design a simplified jaw movement analyzer and articulator. The study also shows that most patient's movement characteristics can be satisfied with standard preformed articulator controls.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007574	Jaw Relation Record	A registration of any positional relationship of the mandible in reference to the maxillae. These records may be any of the many vertical, horizontal, or orientation relations. (Jablonski, Illustrated Dictionary of Dentistry)	Axiography,Bite Registration,Sirognathography,Record, Jaw Relation,Records, Jaw Relation,Bite Registrations,Jaw Relation Records,Registration, Bite,Registrations, Bite
D008334	Mandible	The largest and strongest bone of the FACE constituting the lower jaw. It supports the lower teeth.	Mylohyoid Groove,Mylohyoid Ridge,Groove, Mylohyoid,Grooves, Mylohyoid,Mandibles,Mylohyoid Grooves,Mylohyoid Ridges,Ridge, Mylohyoid,Ridges, Mylohyoid
D008335	Mandibular Condyle	The posterior process on the ramus of the mandible composed of two parts: a superior part, the articular portion, and an inferior part, the condylar neck.	Condyle, Mandibular,Condyles, Mandibular,Mandibular Condyles
D009068	Movement	The act, process, or result of passing from one place or position to another. It differs from LOCOMOTION in that locomotion is restricted to the passing of the whole body from one place to another, while movement encompasses both locomotion but also a change of the position of the whole body or any of its parts. Movement may be used with reference to humans, vertebrate and invertebrate animals, and microorganisms. Differentiate also from MOTOR ACTIVITY, movement associated with behavior.	Movements
D003725	Dental Articulators	Mechanical devices that simulate the temporomandibular joints and jaws to which maxillary and mandibular casts are attached. The entire assembly attempts to reproduce the movements of the mandible and the various tooth-to-tooth relationships that accompany those movements.	Articulators,Articulator, Dental,Articulators, Dental,Dental Articulator,Articulator
D003748	Dental Equipment	The nonexpendable items used by the dentist or dental staff in the performance of professional duties. (From Boucher's Clinical Dental Terminology, 4th ed, p106)	Equipment, Dental,Dental Equipments,Equipments, Dental
D003766	Dental Occlusion	The relationship of all the components of the masticatory system in normal function. It has special reference to the position and contact of the maxillary and mandibular teeth for the highest efficiency during the excursive movements of the jaw that are essential for mastication.
