title: [Recording pattern of occlusal indicators. I. Influence of indicator thickness, pressure, and surface morphology].
abstract: There are no data in the literature about the recording pattern of occlusal indicators and the relevant methods. We therefore studied the recording patterns of four foils, six paper materials, and four silk qualities at different pressures and surface morphologies. Foils are the thinnest indicator materials and give more accurate readings than paper and silk. However, under smaller loads their marking capacity is worse. This means that higher pressures must be applied for the clinical use of foils. The drawbacks of the more intensively marking papers and silk are their greater thickness and less flexible base material. This leads to a greater number of pseudo contact markings.
