DIGITIZING THE FACEBOW: A CLINICIAN/TECHNICIAN COMMUNICATION TOOL
Kalman, Les / Chrapka, Julia / Joseph, Yasmin
"Communication
between the clinician and the technician has been an ongoing problem in
dentistry. To improve the issue, a dental software application has been
developed-the Virtual Facebow App. It is an alternative to the traditional
analog facebow, used to orient the maxillary cast in mounting. Comparison data
of the two methods indicated that the digitized virtual facebow provided
increased efficiency in mounting, increased accuracy in occlusion, and lower
cost. Occlusal accuracy, lab time, and total time were statistically
significant (P < .05). The virtual facebow provides a novel alternative for
cast mounting and another tool for clinician-technician communication."
