General product description
The Orthometer kit consists of:
- arthrometer
- bow divider with sleeve
- centimeter disc and millimeter disc
- case
Orthometer:
The device consists of a central white plastic disc with an engraved scale;
this rotates easily between two windowed outer scales. When the instrument is
set at the total width of the incisor teeth (S.I.), it is possible to read off
the relevant values for the transverse and sagittal dimensions for both the
upper and lower dental arches simultaneously.
Bow divider with sleeve:
Small precision dividers for measuring tooth width. The beveled sleeve has an
engraved mm-scale which can be used to measure the sagittal anterior tooth
gradient.
Centimeter disc and millimeter disc:
Transparent plastic discs with engraved scales for the analysis of casts and
profile photographs.
Case:
For storing the Diagnostic Instrument acc. to Korkhaus.
Application
Using the dividers, the maximum width of the four upper incisors is measured
and added together = sum of the incisors (S.I.). The middle disc on the
arthrometer is then turned until this value can be seen in section S.I. The
following data, stipulated by Korkhaus as a reference value can then be read
from the other windows on the instrument:
a) the anterior arch width, i.e. the transverse distance between the first
bicuspids.
b) the posterior arch width, i.e. the distance between the first molars.
c) the anterior arch length (l), i.e. the median line that runs at a right
angle from the line connecting the first bicuspid to the labial surface of the
central incisors.
A comparison with the measured arch lengths and widths will indicate the
required course of treatment. The values of the orthoester are based upon the
values given by the Pont index, modified by Korkhaus.
