Abstract:
The procedure described provides a novel and accessible virtual facebow transfer based on standardized photographs loaded in the virtual articulator module of a computer-assisted design and computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD-CAM) software program for dental applications. The practical application of the technique in a digital workflow is the correct alignment of the digital maxillary cast to the virtual articulator with respect to the patient's planes and the skin markings of the condylar axis.

Virtual Work
In static equilibrium, a body can experience an imaginary or virtual movement, such as displacement or rotation. The virtual work done by a force is equal to the dot product of force and virtual displacement in the direction of the force. When it comes to virtually rotating a...
Background and Environment Affect Phenotype
An example of how genetic background affects phenotype can be seen in horses. The Extension gene in horses is responsible for their coat color. A wild-type gene (EE) produces black pigment in the coat, while a mutant gene (ee) produces red pigment. A...
