title: A study on self centering of face bows.
abstract: Hanau spring bow has been in use since 1986. Hanau spring bow is claimed to maintain self centering property when it is positioned in the patient as well as in the articulator. However there is no documented evidence to prove that feature. Mainly it was due to the absence of a testing device. Exclusively for the present study, the testing device consisting of a platform, stops and distance measuring system was designed by the third author. This study proved that Hanau has the capability of self centering.
