Articulator with back rod and hinge rod

The Articulator with Back Rod and Hinge Rod in Germany is a versatile and essential tool used in dentistry and orthodontics for studying and replicating the movements of the human jaw. This device allows dental professionals to accurately analyze and reproduce the positioning of the upper and lower teeth, enabling them to create precise dental restorations, prosthetics, and orthodontic appliances. The Articulator with back rod consists of a sturdy framework made of high-quality materials, typically metal or durable plastic.

It consists of two main components: the upper member and the lower member, which simulate the upper and lower jaws, respectively. These members are connected by a back rod and a hinge rod, which provide stability and facilitate realistic movement of the artificial jaw. The back rod is positioned at the rear of the articulator and serves as a pivotal point for rotational movement. It mimics the hinge axis of the human jaw, allowing the upper and lower members to open and close in a natural manner.

This articulator with back rod is adjustable, allowing for precise calibration and customization to match the patient’s specific jaw characteristics. The hinge rod, on the other hand, connects the upper and lower members near the front of the articulator. It controls the lateral or sideways movement of the jaw, enabling dental professionals to replicate various functional movements such as protrusion, retrusion, and lateral excursion. The hinge rod is also adjustable, allowing for fine-tuning of the articulator to accurately reproduce the patient’s specific jaw movements.

By utilizing the Articulator with Back Rod and Hinge Rod in Germany, dentists and orthodontists can create dental restorations, including crowns, bridges, and dentures, that precisely fit the patient’s natural bite and occlusion. Orthodontists can also use this device to plan and fabricate orthodontic appliances, such as braces and aligners, with the aim of correcting malocclusions and achieving optimal dental alignment.
