Registration of intermaxillary relations using anterior Jig compared to the classical method

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to record the intermaxillary relationships as accurately as possible by using the anterior Jig method as compared to the classical occlusion recording. The patients were divided into two groups. In the study group, the anterior Jig was used to record as accurately as possible the situation in the oral cavity in terms of intermaxillary relations, and in the control group, the classical method was used. With the help of indirect provisional restorations, the differences that appeared after recording the occlusion with the 2 methods were highlighted. In conclusion, the method of recording the intermaxillary relationships using the anterior Jig and the material of recording the bilateral occlusion proved to be the most accurate fitting of the models in the articulator, the difference being made by the anterior support.
