Outline of Final Research Achievements

We developed the virtual articulator which combined dentition data and jaw movement data. And compared the the functional guided path (digital FGP) of the virtual articulator with the traditional approach (FGP, FBI) and examined the possibility of the clinical application. As a result, digital FGP includes a lot of information of the functional movement than a traditional approach. That is it was suggested that fabrication of the prosthesis according to a function was possible.
