摘要:
A method and system for determining a bite of an edentulous individual. The individual's maxillary and mandibular dental arches are scanned to provide first data for preparing a model of the arches. A pair of trays with bite establishment components positioned on each of the trays are held in the individual's mouth with the arches received within the trays to define a maxillomandibular relationship corresponding to a bite position. The trays include apertures for exposing each of the arches to provide a continuous scanning path between the arches. The arches, and a continuous path between the arches, are each scanned while the trays are held in the individual's mouth to provide second data for preparing a model of relative positions of the arches at the bite position. The first and second data may be combined to prepare a model of the arches with empirical data of the bite position.
