An apparatus (10) for recording motion of the mandible relative to the maxilla in reconstructive dentistry comprises a lateral bar (16) attachable to the upper jaw. A pair of stylii (22) are mounted for spring-assisted vertical movement in the bar (16) for cooperation with an underlying tracing plate (36) attachable to the lower jaw. The apparatus (10) can be utilized with patients having dentulous or edentulous mouths. In the preferred embodiment, an adjustable bearing pin assembly (72) is utilized to control minimum spacing between the upper and lower jaws during recordation of the mandibular motion.
