MDM ARTICULATING PAPER

• Mdm Articulating Paper is soft, smooth and non-sticking. The super-sensitive paper is great for marking at every point of articulation. The horseshoe-shaped articulated papers are especially useful for patients who tend to bite unilaterally during the occlusion test due to diminished resilience. Has a high resistance to tearing.

COMPOSITION -

• That is, it marks those points on the teeth where the teeth contact during biting and grinding.
• Articulating paper is made of a thin, non-adhesive paper strip covered in fluorescent ink or dye-containing wax.
• A strip of articulating paper is placed between the teeth while the desired mandibular movements are performed.
• Articulating paper is manufactured as books of many leaves which are torn out and used when required.
