ABSTRACT:
A novel dental surveyor for use in analyzing and working upon dental models is disclosed. The surveyor contains one or more vertical tools, such as marking tools, wax relieving tools and tapered tools. Rotation of a spindle received within a sleeve about its longitudinal axis, combined with horizontal sliding of tool housings upon tool support means attached to said spindle, allows the tools to contact the entire surface of a dental model while always remaining oriented in the vertical direction. The surveyor may also be equipped with e.g. a grinding or drilling tool and means for locking such a tool against horizontal movement while in use.
