About this study

ten asymptomatic participants were selected,the centric relation registrations were separately recorded according to the technique of the gothic arch method and the neuromuscular method,subsequent, they were instructed to perform CBCT wearing two bite registrations,thus using dophin software to calculate the tmj space and the upper airway and using exocad software to ananyse the mandibular position, Data were analysed with paired t-test

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

absence of the mandibular position Classified as ASA 1 or 2 (normal healthy patient or with mild systemic disease, according to the American Society of Anaesthesiologists Physical Status Classification System); Absence of the symptoms and signs of the temporomandibular joint; Willing to participate and to sign a written informed consent form.

Exclusion criteria

Cardiac pacemaker carriers and pregnant women; people with heart pace disorders and epilepsy; Temporomandibular or craniocervical disorders.

Treatment and study plan

the centric relation

Procedure

All participants were recorded the centric relation registrations according to the technique of the gothic tracing method and the neuromuscular method separately.

Primary outcomes

  1. the temporomandibular joint space

    Time frame: immediately

    according to the method of Ikeda and Kawamura, tmj space measurement in sagittal of the CBCT images were performed

Secondary outcomes

  1. the upper airway

    Time frame: immediately

    Using the sinus/airway feature of the Dolphin software to reconstruct the upper airway,it included three region: the nasopharynx, oropharynx, and hypopharynx

Other outcomes

  1. the mandibular position

    Time frame: immediately

    convert the DICOM files into the exocad software and analyse the difference of the mandibular position determined by the technique of the gothic tracing method and the neuromuscular method separately.
