    A new method for orienting dental casts is needed for complete denture prosthetics, as current face-bow records do not account for all anatomical asymmetries. This study suggests an alternative approach to improve denture accuracy.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Prosthodontics
    • Biomechanics

    Background:

    • Accurate orientation of the maxillary cast in an articulator is crucial for complete denture prosthetics.
    • Existing face-bow records may not adequately address anatomical asymmetries of the temporomandibular joint's transverse axis.
    • This limitation can impact the accuracy of the final denture prosthesis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose and evaluate an alternative method for orienting the maxillary cast in an articulator for complete denture fabrication.
    • To ensure the cast-articulator assembly accurately reflects the patient's vertical cranial posture.
    • To overcome the limitations of traditional face-bow records in managing anatomical variations.

    Main Methods:

    • A novel technique for maxillary cast orientation was developed, focusing on capturing vertical cranial posture.

  • The proposed method was compared against the traditional face-bow record in terms of accuracy and reproducibility.
  • Evaluation involved assessing the cast-articulator assembly's fidelity to the patient's natural jaw movements and posture.

    • Main Results:

    • The alternative method demonstrated superior accuracy in reflecting the patient's vertical cranial posture compared to the face-bow record.
    • The proposed technique showed potential in compensating for anatomic hinge axis asymmetries.
    • Further validation is needed, but initial results suggest improved outcomes for complete denture prosthetics.

    Conclusions:

    • The face-bow record is not universally appropriate for orienting maxillary casts in complete denture prosthetics due to anatomic limitations.
    • An alternative method that prioritizes vertical cranial posture offers a more suitable approach for cast orientation.
    • Developing instruments that accommodate all anatomic asymmetries remains a future goal in prosthodontic research.
