An articulator is a mechanism that mimics the jaw joint. With the use of the articulator and three-dimensional models of your current and proposed smile our doctors can see how your bite will function after your smile restoration. If your bite is off, it can cause teeth and restorations to break and chip and lead to pain in the jaw joint. Our doctors have received advanced training in the function of the jaw joint, muscles and teeth and work diligently to make sure that our patients smiles are as strong and healthy as they are beautiful.
