Sažetak
The paper describes the group o f SAM articulators, types and their
changes during time. It also exposes the main problems in working with the SAM-2P articulator and explores the possibility o f its application in fixed prosthodontics. The procedure o f the Quick-Mount Face-Bow transfer, and orientation o f the upper and lower casts in the articulators have also been briefly described. The conclusion may read as fo llows: The correection of occlusal errors on crowns and bridges, by grinding and adjusting in dental surgeries, is a longlasting procedure. Prosthodontic appliances made in the hinge axis instruments or occludators, which by their incorporated construction errors may cause larger deviations from the desired occluding surfaces, become pointless, particularly in most fixed bridge constructions. Use of the SAM-2P articulators and Quick-Mount Face-Bow transfer completely meets daily practice requirements, even without the application o f replaceable elements or individual instrument modifications. Occlusal discrepancies and errors in the position o f ridge, tips of cusps and fissures can easily be corrected by careful grindings in dental surgeries, which would not be too time consuming. It is also possible to make all complicated rehabilitation procedures in this instrument, but with maximum individualization and with a special approach to every single case.
