ECCENTRIC RELATIONS
Protrusion
PHYSIOLOGIC METHOD
1. Tactile or inter – occlusal check record method.
2. Swallowing threshold
3. Pressure less Method – Nick and Notch Method
FUNCTIONAL METHOD
CHEW IN METHOD
1. NEEDLE HOUSE METHOD
large tongues
It involves 2 steps
L= H/8+12
H- horizontal condylar inclination
established by protrusive record
L- lateral condylar inclination
PANTOGRAPHIC TRACING
Pantographic tracing is a graphic record of
mandibular movement usually recorded in the
horizontal,sagittal,frontal planes as registered by
styli on the recording tables of a pantograph or by
means of electronic sensors.
This is a three dimentional graphic tracer.
Most accurate method.
Used for full mouth rehabilitation of dentulous
patients.
EVALUATION OF NEEDLE
POINT TRACING
MOHAMED A. ARAMANY ET AL [ JPD
1965]
Craddock postulated that when mandible
assumes rest position , it is in centric relation.
Mohamed states that needle point tracings at
given vertical dimension at same individual on
same sitting were not significantly different.
Needle point tracing is reliable.
A STUDY OF CENTRIC
RELATION
HARRY SPUNTOFF ET AL [1955]
Reproducibility is a good way for attaining
centric relation.
Jankelson states that movement from rest
position to centric telation is accompanied by
salivary swallowing.
Centric relation in cases of jaw malposture is
influenced by salivary swallowing.
