Abstract
With recent increasing demand for aesthetics, the importance of smile has been recognized in aesthetic evaluation, and a system to produce face masks has become commercially available. We improved this system and clinically applied. The morphology of the dental arch represented by the curve of Spee and the significance of the face bow were easier to understand when the face mask also attached to the articulator than when the model alone was attached. Aesthetics is closely associated with function. Since this face mask is very effective for occlusal guidance, we evaluated the effects of the face mask from the stomatognathic aspect.<BR>Attachment of a face mask allowed understanding of the visible tooth region and the 3-dimensional positional relationship from the lips to the teeth in the articulator. Since the source of fixation was obtained in the maxillary dental arch, relatively natural smile could be reproduced, and evaluation of the morphology of the teeth and dental arch became easier. Impression taking extending to the nose facilitated the importance of the face bow transfer.
