Burbank Dental Lab introduces a simplified Face-Bow for esthetics and function - the Kois Dento-Facial Analyzer

3. These procedures can be more simply done with the patient in a supine position. By doing this, the head is supported by the dental chair head rest. Align the incisal edge to the wall on the Index Tray. You can look at the vertical rod related to the facial midline better from behind the patient. Have the lateral wings hang straight down as you make the registration of the teeth.

4. While maintaining incisal contact with the Index Tray and vertical rod alignment to the facial midline, rotate Analyzer Bow up in the posterior until the lateral wings are level to the horizon. This should be done while looking at the front of the patient. The Bioesthetic Level Gauge™ is not required. However, it can be added to verify that the bow is level in the sagittal plane.

5. You have now captured the steepness and tilts of the occlusal plane in the registration material on the horizontally aligned Index Tray. Remove Index Tray from Analyzer Bow and send to the lab for mounting of study casts. This disposable Index Tray now becomes a permanent bite fork registration record.
