Geneva2000TM Tools For Doctors & Dental Technicians
For
Better communication between patient,
doctor and laboratory.
Alameter
The Alameter is a vital instrument for both the doctor?s office and the dental technician. The Alameter measures the ala to ala distance of the nose. The distance represents the width of the six anterior segment of the teeth. This classifies the arch width, and the size of Geneva 2000 teeth. Research shows that this is accurate 96% of the time and is more accurate than any other methods used to select the width of the Anterior Arch. The Alameter also has the guide to select the exact mold that will best be used for your male or female patients. Instructions for the use of this instrument are written directly on the instrument.
Papillameter (autoclavable)
The Papillameter
is an autoclavable intra-oral instrument used to measure the length of
the upper lip when at rest. This is an easy method of communication between
the doctor?s office and the laboratory as to how long the upper lip is
at rest, in addition to saving the doctor chair time.
In the dental office treatment room the doctor spends
a lot of chair time with the patient and the laboratory formed bite blocks.
A customized wax rim can be formed by using the
Papillameter and the Alameter, by the
laboratory ,called the E.C.B. (Esthetic Control Base) The E.C.B. saves
chair time and is individualized for each patient. The E.C.B. is the first
step in establishing the new denture plane of occlusion. The E.C.B. also
gives better esthetics and stability to the new dentures.
Rimformer
for Premium Aesthetics in Denture Construction
A integral tool in creating the most natural Geneva 2000? aesthetic results. The Rimformer allows the operator to use the Alameter and Papillameter measurements from the doctor to melt wax while creating a working wax bite block or rim called an Esthetic Control Base (ECB) that has:
- Proper anterior length
- Is horizontally level with the hamular notches which parallels the denture to the base of the skull
- A natural Buccal Corridor
- Proper Cuspid Position
* All of the above can be pre-established in the lab with the use of the Rimformer.
Vertical & Centric Recorder
This tool is so technologically
advanced yet so easy to use. Doctors who want excellence in there prosthetic
work use the Geneva 2000? Vertical & Centric
Recorder. This recorder allows you to arrive at the precise vertical
dimension and centric relation that is best for each individual patient.
You can depend on this tool to give you the correct jaw relation. Far
superior that what you can get from a wax bite block.
Silver Template
Used in Non-Interceptive Occlusion to set the posteriors
and lower anteriors. The Stainless steel template has
been machined to a thickness of .020" while maintaining its rigidity
so the teeth can be set against it.
This thickness provides the under bite in the anterior part of the denture.
If used properly the silver template produces an under bite that helps
prevent soreness and long term bone loss for the denture wearer. For more information see
video tape # 4
Black Template
Only for Non-Interceptive
Occlusion cases.
Made of black anodized aluminum 1/16" thick. These
templates are milled to be true within .0002 of an inch. After the
denture has been processed the AutoCentric flat posteriors are milled
flat with wet dry sand paper against a glass slab. The black template
is then used to check the flatness of those posteriors to insure
proper functional stabilty when using Non-Interceptive Occlusion.
Used during post processing refinement and the post insertion adjustment
phase.
