Mathematical Expressions for Computing Mandibular Movements

Part I Expressions for Computing Cusp Path Inclinations from Condylar and Incisal Paths

Abstract

Mathematical expressions for computing cusp path inclinations from guiding factors of condylar and incisal paths were derived, based upon the kinematic formulae for mandibular movement. In addition to expressions for computing cusp path inclinations, expressions for horizontal cusp path angle were also derived.
