Abstract

붕괴된 교합평면을 보철적으로 재구성하는 과정에 있어 face-bow와 교합기는 필수적으로 필요한 기구로 사용되어왔다. 일반적으로 Ear rod를 사용하는 face bow는 상악 정중선의 오차와 교합평면의 canting이 발생할 가능성이 있는데 이런 문제점을 해결하기위해 환자의 안면 정중선을 기준으로 하는 face bow가 개발되어왔다. Ear-bow를 이용한 mounting에서 종종 발생하는 오류를 보완하는 방법으로 환자 안면의 중심과 교합기의 중심을 일치시키려는 개념의 mounting technique이 시도되고 있으며 이를 esthetic mounting이라 한다. 이들 중 하나인OP finder 1(OP1)을 사용한 증례를 보고하고자 한다. A face-bow and an articulator have been used as crucial devices in a prosthodontic reconstruction of a collapsed occlusal plane. In order to avoid inaccuracy of median line in maxilla and the canted occlusal plane both of which may result from using a facebow with ear rods, a facebow that locate a patient's facial median line as reference line has been under development. A mounting technique that tries to bring a center of patient's face into line with the center of the articulator, called esthetic mounting, is currently employed to overcome the imprecision resulted from mounting with ear-bow transfer. We would like to study a case that used OP finder 1, one of the esthetic mounting techniques.
