Programming eccentric movement tracks into
the Reference SL articulator is carried out with
the Reference SL program set.
Programming can be based on an average
value or, preferably, on individually ascertained
mandibular joint data (CADIAX), but can also be
based on other data, including therapeutic crite-
ria.
The Reference SL articulator guidances consist
of different SCI and TCI inserts (sagittal and
transversal guidance elements) and their ad-
justable angles, in relation to the reference
plane.
The Reference SL condylar housings are de-
signed to allow for individual interchange of the
inserts. In addition, the program set also in-
cludes so called “protrusion stops”. These ele-
ments allow for the exact protrusive positioning
of the lower jaw, in 1 mm increments. When us-
ing the optional protrusion stop set orange, it is
possible to have increments of 0.5 mm up to the
third millimeter.
The GAMMA CADIAX calculation table pro-
vides an easy and effective means of identifying
eccentric articulator value settings for the indi-
vidual patient.
Based on electronic registrations of protrusive
and mediotrusive movements, the system cal-
culates both the ideal angle setting and the op-
timal TCI or SCI insert.
Fixing and adjusting the SCI insert:
First, separate the upper and lower sections of
the articulator; then, remove the centric lock and
detach the exchangeable insert by pressing it
lightly forward. Now, hold the new insert at an
angle, and attach it to the guidance by sliding it
forward slightly, until it clicks in.
