Kosmo Technologies has developed a disposable three-axis bite registration gauge called the Andra Gauge.
The Andra Gauge allows dentists to clearly communicate in three dimensions the location of the mandible in relationship to the maxilla, including the critical locations of the midline and vertical positions of the bite, according to the company.
The device is designed to help provide a fitting oral appliance for fundamental dental bites for crowns, implants, and sleep and TMD/TMJ appliances, as well as splints and all other orthodontics.
Once sent to the lab, the Andra Gauge simply describes the position to the oral appliance fabricator, allowing the lab to create an oral appliance that is more comfortable and helpful to the patient, according to Kosmo.
