Abstract
As the science of dentistry advances, more emphasis is being given to the function of the mandible. The recording center concept provides for the service of mandibular analysis, terminal hinge location, and mandibular recordings. This study is concerned with operating a mandibular recording center where patients can be referred for these specific services.
The practicability of a recording center has been determined by this study.
In order to assure accuracy and to reproduce consistent results, it seems necessary that the operators of recording centers be trained specifically for this purpose.
The complete process relies on the accurate location of the terminal hinge axis and its reliability depends upon the accuracy with which this axis is related to recording and transfer instruments.
