Abstract:
The reproducibility of movement recordings obtained with the Condylocomp LR 2 was tested on three different types of articulator (Dentatus, SAM 2, Stuart). Additionally, reproducibility of TMJ movement recordings was tested on 18 subjects. Differences of +/- 2 degrees to the real angles, when working carefully, seem to be precise enough. The Condylocomp LR 2 seems to be a useful means for diagnosing and documenting TMJ movements, because it allows dynamic recordings with high resolution and correction of geometric errors.
