CARDENAS MARTOS, A et al. Registry of temporomandibular dynamics by means of ultrasounds with ARCUSdigma by KaVo. Av Odontoestomatol [online]. 2003, vol.19, n.3, pp.131-139. ISSN 2340-3152.

Throughout the time different methods have been described to know and to register temporomandibular dynamics. In the present work we expose a new method based on the emission and reception of ultrasounds that is going to allow us to work in real time with digital reproductions of the movements that the patient does. This system, recently created by the German company KaVo, can be a great aid, not so single to accelerate and to improve the assembly and adjustment of models in artieulator, but to know in the moment, and before facing a work of restoration, the characteristics of the patient jaw movements and to leave registe red it in our history. In the same way, this possibility of working with mandibular traffic diagrams in real time has, as we think, infinity of possibilities in the area of the education, investigation ... etc. Therefore, the first step is to present and to know ARCUSdigma^® (KaVo elektrotechnisches, Werk, GMBH, leutkirch,Germany) possibilities.
