The Denar system and its application in everyday dentistry.
The Denar System is far more than just a pantograph and a fully adjustable articulator. These are just a small portion of the system. Today and system includes instruments for occlusal treatment, educational programs, protocol for dentist-laboratory relations, and laboratory support. Prior to the Denar System, effective occlusal treatment was available only to a select few and it was rendered with the expenditure of considerable time and expense by those few dentists who, after many years of concentrated effort, developed the required skills and eventually overcome the obstacles to providing this service. Today, the Denar System provides the profession not only with the tools but also with the means to acquire, in a few short months, basic occlusal treatment and management skills that took predecessors many years of concentrated effort to develop. Because of the continuing efforts of many of our colleagues in dental education there is currently an increasing level of awareness of the role of occlusion in modern dental practice. These significant educational activities can now be supported by commercial organizations, such as the Denar Corporation, who possess the resources needed to develop whatever instruments or services are required to enable more dentists to implement principles of occlusion in their treatments on a routine basis and to enable them to do so within the economic framework of a modern dental practice.
