Abstract:
This technique uses 3 or 4 two-dimensional (2D) photographs, including a frontal headshot with a facebow and lip retractors, a profile headshot with a facebow and lip retractors on the right or left side, and a frontal headshot with a facebow during maximum smile without retractors. These 2D photographs are used to digitally mount casts on a virtual articulator.
