Face bow of the mandibular motion diagnostic device

摘要

This invention relates to a face bow for a mandibular motion diagnostic device and more particularly to a face bow as a component of a device for measuring a patient's mandibular motion and reproducing it precisely by the use of a mandibular model on the basis of the measured data. The face bow is attached in a fixed positional relationship to the patient's mandible as measurement is taken of the motion thereof and is shifted onto the mandibular model upon completion of the measurement so that the patient's dental arch in its actual position is precisely reproduced in the mandibular model.
