Abstract
The invention relates to a device useful for taking dimensions of the stomatognathic system, in particular the soft tissues which circumscribe the masticatory system, in particular the anterior part of the face in relation to the denture. This device has graduated parts that allow taking precise measurements and can be transferred or projected to an articulator, which is used in rehabilitation processes and restorative dentistry.
Claims5
A device for dimensioning soft tissues of a face in relation to an oral device and teeth, comprising the following parts:
- a face support (4) in the form of a frame of optical glasses;
- a plate with a hole in a bow of the face support (4);
- a bipupillary alignment rule (1) that has a form of window with an upper horizontal section suitable to match a bipupillary line;
- a securing point disposed at a midpoint of the upper horizontal section;
- the securing point is suitable to be fixed with the plate of the face support (4);
- two parallel rules that are parallel to each other, both parallel rules fused with the upper horizontal section, to get the form of window;
- wherein the two parallel rules have graduations;
- two lateral alignment rules (3);
- wherein ends of the lateral alignment rules are fixed to the upper horizontal section and a lower horizontal section of the bipupillary alignment rule (1);
- wherein the two lateral alignment rules are suitable for moving, approaching or moving away from each other;
- a reference rule of a Wilson curve (6) that includes an arc;
- a parallelizer of an occlusal plane (7) with an “H” shape of unequal arms;
- wherein the parallelizer of the occlusal plane (7) is suitable for moving in an horizontal, vertical, inclined, rotated way or a combination of these forms of movement;
- and an articulator support (8) that includes two rectangular and elongated surfaces with holes at their ends suitable for housing screws at each end.
