Reference SL Articulator and Face Bow Systems
- 7 -
3 Reference AB face bow
The Reference AB face bow ( 06-230430 ) is
used for mounting the upper jaw model into the
Reference SL articulator, according to the ana-
tomic hinge axis.
Soften the Bite Tabs (06-642150) in warm water
at approximately 45

C and place three of them
on the bite fork. Apply wax to the bite fork.
Place the prepared bite fork onto the upper
teeth of the patient in median-sagittal direction
with slight pressure on all waxed points. Try to
get equally shallow impressions. The teeth
should not touch the metal fork.
Loosen the glabella support. The 3D joint sup-
port is not yet attached to the face bow. Insert
the porus supports into the patient's ear canals.
Tighten the screw to fix the position.
Gently push the porus supports into the ear ca-
nals.
