ence point (see figure 5) and tighten clamp
#1, then clamp #2 (see Figures 6 and 7).
When tightening clamps #1 and #2, care must
be taken not to displace the bow to either
side by having the vertical shaft rest on the
fingers as shown in Figure 6. The patient's
inter-condylar distance is the measurement
indicated on the scale (see Figure 8). Record
this measurement.
Loosen the finger screw on the measur-
ing bow, slide the bow open, and remove the
entire facebow from the patient.
Detach the measuring bow from the transfer
jig by loosening the finger screw (see Figure
9). Having completed the procedures involv-
ing the patient, the bitefork assembly (see
Figure 10) may be labeled with the patient's
name and set aside while the measuring bow
portion can be used with an additional bite-
fork assembly for the next patient.
Note: The metal bitefork, vertical shaft and
earpieces can be sterilized in an autoclave
EXCEPT for the black finger screws on the
#1 and #2 clamps. Remove the finger screws
(and spacers) before autoclaving or use cold
sterilization.
Sterilize bitefork before each use.
