All or nothing Function
All patient parameters are transferred
to the virtual articulator beginning with
the extent of the excursions – protrusi-
on, laterotrusion to the left and right as
well as retrusion (Fig. 21).
The facebow registration and dynamic
bite registration ensure that all excur-
sions can be individually reproduced
in the virtual world. The software re-
cords the patient data determined by
the dentist. This includes centric occlu-
sion, freespaces in centric occlusion,
all processes of the incisal and canine
guidance and abrasion surfaces as im-
portant reference points, which are
part of a functional restoration. The
user can rely on the fact that the indi-
vidual patient parameters are availab-
le at any time in the CAD software. The
next part demonstrates the step-by-
step creation of the aesthetic and fun-
ctional design. n
