pubmed:abstractText
Wax interocclusal records of five subjects made during three types of mandibular closing movement at various degrees of jaw opening were successively placed between mandibular and maxillary casts that were mounted on an articulator. Recording pins inserted into the lateral sides of the casts were used to record the amount of movements. The rotation centers were then calculated and the following results were obtained. (1) For the terminal hinge closure in which the mandible was guided by the chinpoint, no statistically constant rotation center was observed. (2) For the most retruded closure of the mandible in which each subject was asked to make the most retruded position by his own effort, a constant rotation center was found in two of five subjects. (3) For habitual closure of the mandible no constant rotation center was observed, and where the interocclusal distance was less than 1 mm the mandible seemed to close perpendicular to the occlusal plane.
