Articulator Paper

• To identify contact points between upper and lower teeth.
• To detect high spots in dental restorations (e.g., fillings, crowns, bridges).
• To ensure proper bite alignment after procedures.

✅ How It Works:

• The patient bites down on the paper strip.
• The paper transfers a colored mark (usually blue or red) onto the tooth surfaces where contact occurs.
• These marks help the dentist adjust the bite accurately.

🧪 Common Uses:

• After placing fillings, crowns, veneers
• During orthodontic check-ups
• In TMJ or occlusal adjustment therapies
