Replicability of chinpoint-guidance and anterior programmer for recording centric relation.
The chinpoint-guidance technique, using an anterior programmer, as performed in this study, seems to be a replicable method of locating centric relation. Sequential registration of centric relation was repeatable in 60% of the patients studied. The average variability found in 40% of the patients of this study was about +/- 0.20 mm at the level of the condyles.
