[QUOTE="Sda36, post: 327885, member: 17701"] I've had some very decent results with the "Enzo" articulator in a pinch when better functional controls are required. I hate the way some plastic articulators are so locked in in movements. Let's go back to Bonwill's Triangle. 4 " between Condyles and 4" from condlye to incisal's edges of Mandibular centrals. The "Arc" dictated by the articulator is to represent those distances. Most or our plastic versions do not compare with those. Arcs ie; Denar, SAM, Artech are far more accurate on this level. When I use the virtual atriculator in CAD, I try to position models as best to respect this. Try to keep in mind these proven gnatalogical concepts and arcs, are real. With respect to the "Enzo" it gets better in being further away for the centers of rotation, condyles, and is pretty simple to use. Only consideration is their mounting plates need to be used. A little glue & freeze and you're done. Usually pop these plates off and not return them the Dr.'s. [/QUOTE]
