All or nothing

Function

the case of dynamic grinding in – in

contrast to static grinding in – the gui-

de surfaces can be very finely prepared

from the palatal (Fig. 17 to 20).

Fig. 14 Restructured guide surfaces

using the “Freeform tool”

Fig. 17 “Adapting to the antagonists” determines

where there is penetration and “grinds” in this high

spot

Fig. 18 Functional surfaces would be inadequately

prepared without a virtual articulator

Fig. 19 Cleary visible high spots on the functional surfac-

es with only static adaptation to the opposing jaw

Fig. 20 Adaptation using the virtual articulator shows all

the guide surfaces in function without high spots in protru-

sion or laterotrusion

Fig. 15 The guide surfaces control the

gradual protrusive movement
