Patent Images
1. A tooth model occlusion testing device, used to test the alignment of an upper part and a lower part of a tooth model in an occlusion configuration, the testing device comprising:
- an upper jaw, including a first placement cavity where is received the upper part of the tooth model, one side of the upper jaw terminating in a first arm that has a first hinge (13); and
a lower jaw, including a second placement cavity where is received the lower part of the tooth model, one side of the lower jaw terminating in a second arm that has a second hinge, the upper and lower jaws pivotally connecting to each other via the first and second hinges, thereby the upper and lower jaws are capable of turning to an open and occluding position to evaluate the alignment of the upper and lower parts of the tooth model in the occluding position.

Abstract
A tooth model occlusion testing device comprises an upper jaw and a lower jaw that pivotally connect to each other. Two tooth model bases are respectively received in the upper and lower jaws, and are provided with a plurality of perforations to insert a tooth model. The upper and lower jaws are thereby capable of turning to an open and occluding position to evaluate the alignment of the upper and lower parts of the tooth model in the occluding position.

9. A tooth model occlusion testing device, used to test the alignment of an upper part and a lower part of a tooth model in an occlusion configuration, the testing device comprising:
-
an upper jaw, including a first placement cavity, one side of the upper jaw terminating in a first arm that has a first hinge;
a lower jaw, including a second placement cavity, one side of the lower jaw terminating in a second arm that has a second hinge, the upper and lower jaws pivotally connecting to each other via the first and second hinges;
two tooth model bases, respectively received in the first and second placement cavities, the tooth model bases respectively including a plurality of perforations to respectively insert the first and second parts of the tooth model; and
a plurality of transparent films, respectively adhered on the tooth model bases, the transparent films being marked with central reference indicator lines and front and rear direction indicator lines, thereby the upper and lower jaws are capable of turning to an open and occluding position to evaluate the alignment of the upper and lower parts of the tooth model in the occluding position.
