Abstract

Virtual planning has become part and parcel of digital dentistry to ensure more precise planning, better treatment outcomes, and more effective communication between dental practitioners, dental technicians, and patients. In dentistry, CAD software programs are one way to achieve virtual treatment planning. Among the most crucial and critical steps in treatment planning and execution are virtual articulation and occlusal analysis of the maxillary and mandibular arches. These steps have a great influence on the success of the final outcome. The present article proposes a detailed method for constructing a novel virtual articulator that can also be used for educational purposes to enable occlusal analysis and adjustment fora virtual tooth mock-up by simulating a virtual dynamic occlusion through the use of open-source Autodesk Meshmixer software.
