A built-in virtual articulator allows the
user to perform functional movements
on a restoration. The critical steps are
that the user needs to scan at least to the
contra-lateral canine. Once this is done,
the software will automatically perform
the functional movements on the models.
An animation can also be played
that shows the jaws in function.
While this is more for patient
education, it can also show
the clinician the anticipated
movement of the jaws. The
virtual articulator can be fully
programmed (condylar inclina-
tion, Bennet angle, etc.), or an
average series of data points can
be used. There currently is no
interface to facebow systems.
This new feature is in addition to
the insertion axis. By positioning the
model into the appropriate area of the
arch form, the software is able to give
much better proposals. Model axis is
another feature that has been in the
inLab software and allows the user to
more accurately design proposals. This
feature is especially noticeable when
designing multiple anteriors in the
Biogeneric mode.
