Articulator

Reliable Cast Positioning for Dental Laboratory Workflows

An articulator is a dental laboratory instrument used to hold and relate dental casts for examination, planning, and fabrication work. By providing a stable framework for positioning casts, it helps laboratory professionals assess occlusal relationships and organize bench procedures with greater consistency. Its role supports focused evaluation of cast relationships without requiring the working models to be handled continuously during each step. The articulator can serve as a practical platform for routine laboratory tasks involving mounted casts, helping keep work structured from initial assessment through subsequent adjustment or fabrication activities.

Use Cases

• Position dental casts for laboratory examination of their relationship.
• Support assessment and organization of cast-based dental laboratory work.
• Provide a stable working platform while carrying out model-related adjustment or fabrication tasks.
• Help maintain an organized workflow when reviewing mounted casts during laboratory procedures.

Care & Handling

• Clean the instrument according to applicable facility procedures and product-specific instructions.
• Inspect the articulator before use for visible soil, damage, or conditions that could affect handling.
• Handle the instrument carefully during cast placement, adjustment, cleaning, and transfer.
• Store it in a clean, dry area where it is protected from impact and contamination.
