ABSTRACT
Different techniques of transferring the maxillary cast into the analog semi-adjustable articulator by using the true horizontal or gravity reference plane have been reported. However, procedures are required for recording this reference plane and transferring the maxillary cast into the virtual semi-adjustable articulator. In the present manuscript, a technique is described for registering the true horizontal or gravity plane in relationship to the natural head position of the patient by using an optical jaw tracking system. Additionally, the recorded true horizontal plane is used to transfer the maxillary cast into the virtual semi-adjustable articulator by using a dental computer-aided design program. This technique facilitates the maxillary cast transfer into the virtual articulator by using the true horizontal plane recorded with an optical jaw tracking system, maximizing the functionality of the optical jaw tracking device.
