compare the values of the Bennett angle measured by an average value articulator with the ones measured by a 64 slices Computed Tomography (CT).
we have studied a patient aged 72. Maxillary and mandibular impressions were obtained from the patient and placed on the average value articulator using wax-ups and a facial arch in order to perform the Bennett angle measurations by such device. CT measurements were carried out using templates in order to block the Patient in the correct mandibular position.
our study has demonstrated that the measurements of the Bennett angle obtained with the average value articulator are consistent with the ones obtained with the 64 slices CT.
CT scanning is a useful method, alternative to conventional procedures, as the average value articulator for Bennett angle measurements, and it could become an important diagnostic tool in the gnathological and rehabilitative area.
比较使用平均值牙合架测量的贝内特角值与使用64层计算机断层扫描（CT）测量的贝内特角值。
我们研究了一名72岁的患者。从患者口中获取上颌和下颌印模，并使用蜡堤和面弓将其放置在平均值牙合架上，以便通过该设备进行贝内特角测量。使用模板进行CT测量，以便将患者固定在正确的下颌位置。
我们的研究表明，使用平均值牙合架获得的贝内特角测量值与使用64层CT获得的测量值一致。
CT扫描是一种有用的方法，可替代传统方法，作为测量贝内特角的平均值牙合架，并且它可能成为口腔颌面部病理学和康复领域的重要诊断工具。
