Abstract:
The purpose of this study is first, to evaluate the influence of locating the horizontal transverse axis of rotation of the mandible, both kinematically and conventionally, and second, to determine the influence of the thickness of the wax check-bite, as obtained in the centric relation, upon the functional analysis of the occlusion. The results show that the influence of any displacement of the horizontal transverse axis of rotation of the mandible is smaller, within a circle with a 6-mm radius, than that of the thickness of the wax check-bite obtained in the centric relation.
