ABSTRACT
Jaw tracking systems can record mandibular motion for incorporation into programs used for designing dental prostheses. However, the protocol for data acquisition and design using the recorded mandibular motion is unclear. The envelope of function recorded in a patient with acceptable occlusal function provides important functional information that can be integrated into the design of dental prostheses. A protocol for recording a patient's digital data, including the envelope of function using a jaw tracker, for incorporation into the design procedures and a delivery protocol are described. This technique may simplify the delivery of prostheses by reducing the adjustments needed to the definitive prostheses.
