About mounting plates
A mounting plate is a removable metal or resin device that attaches to the upper and lower members of an articulator and is used to attach the casts to it. The glossary gives mounting ring as another name for it.
Mounting is the laboratory procedure of attaching a cast to an articulator. The word also names the result: the relationship of the casts to each other and to the instrument they are attached to. A dental cast is a positive life-size reproduction of part of the mouth.
What the parts of a mounting system do
- Mounting plates — The removable plate between the cast and the articulator.
- Mounting accessories — The parts used around the plate: stands, magnets and inserts.
- Replacement parts — Original parts that restore an instrument already in use.
- Incisal pins and guide tables — The front guidance of the instrument: a pin on one member resting on a table on the other.
- Articulator accessories — Add-on parts, where replacement parts restore what the instrument came with.
What to look at when choosing mounting parts
Material: mounting plates are made of metal or of resin.
Removal and replacement: a split-cast mounting lets a cast come off the instrument and go back, and is also a way to check the accuracy of the jaw relation record.
Remounting: a remount procedure is any method used to relate restorations to an articulator for analysis.
Fit: most mounting parts on this shelf are made by one articulator maker for its own instruments.
