[QUOTE="Sda36, post: 334374, member: 17701"] Honestly Matt, you are far more accomplished and knowledgeable than I read in your 1st post. Have really enjoyed all of the responses so far and helpful insights. It just seems sometimes that no matter how much care and attention you put into your work with virtual articulator, surprises happen, just sucks sometimes. So many variables involved, quality of scan which may Look OK?????, import and manipulation. We had a case today for a bite splint, not ios and Man you couldn't find a true centric at all by hand. Dr. Took an open bite record without an anterior stop of any fashion, how is that remotely possible. Squirt in a bunch of pvs and close, but not close, anywhere -impossible! Was wider open in the molar region ×3 compared to the anteriors. Been at this a while, trust in the Lucia Jig method, 3 bite records in which 2 of 3 must agree. This digital path is so far away from that approach its not even comparable. I do believe however that some excellent tools in digital may be nearer than farther away. That's my hope. As far as correcting bite and distance from antagonist, its mainly a reflection from feedback from clients. Some need more, some less. Also as ps2thtec said there's no periodontal ligaments in any of our models, quality of provisionals is another concern. I always check my proximal contacts with shimstock, adjust until it pulls through without tearing. Had a new client experiencing proximal contact problems and I suggested they use this standard with the shimstock and bingo we're now having excellent results. Lots to learn and experiment with, great topic Matt, hope it keeps on going 🙂 [/QUOTE]
