Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS6331656
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A tooth setting aid arrangement for use for positionally correctly setting artificial teeth in a complete lower denture on a lower jaw model in accordance with a Pound's line includes a holder which is positionally fixable with respect to the lower jaw model and is arched along an imaginary skullcap-shaped surface with a sagittal and transversal compensation curve, and two insert members which are pivotable and shiftable on the holder within the imaginary skullcap surface as well as arrestable in selected positions thereof relative to the holder for adjustment to the Pound's line. The holder is constituted by a bridge member which includes two plate-shaped bridge elements which are juxtaposed with one another and spaced from each other by a distancing element so as to bound an insertion space. Each of the insert members includes a straight portion and two arm portions which extend at an angle from one side of the straight portion. The insertion slot is dimensioned to receive the arm portions of either one of the insert members at a time, or of both of the insert members at the same time. Recessed head screws passing through the end portions of the bridge elements cooperate with knurled nuts for clamping the insert arms between the bridge portions upon tightening. The straight portions of the insert members have at least regions made of transparent material and provided with marking lines which are to be superimposed with the Pound's line.
