ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for and method of forming accurate hinge axis tooth positioners prepares models of the upper and lower teeth of a patient with the teeth relocated to predetermined positions, takes an interocclusal record of the prepared models mounted on an articulator in the occlusal position but spaced apart the thickness of the tooth positioner material, duplicates the models and mounts them on a correlator in indexed engagement with the interocclusal record, removes the interocclusal record from between the duplicated models and substitutes therein a resilient deformable material, returns the duplicated models to the established interocclusal record position to form impressions of the teeth in the material, and cures the material through the application of heat.
