What's the difference between micropantograph and pantograph?
Micropantograph
Definition:
(n.) A kind of pantograph which produces copies microscopically minute.
Example Sentences:
Pantograph
Definition:
(n.) An instrument for copying plans, maps, and other drawings, on the same, or on a reduced or an enlarged, scale.
Example Sentences:
(1) Most of the subjects' mandibular movements did not improve to the point of making reproducible border movements on a pantograph.
(2) An analysis of variance showed that the condylar inclination recorded by wax was statistically less than recorded with a pantograph.
(3) A total of 136 dentulous patients were divided into three groups for purposes of quantitative pantographic comparison of voluntary and induced Bennett movement.
(4) The average condylar inclination recorded with a pantograph (29.5 degrees) was greater than the recording by either intraoral registration material.
(5) The object of our research is to compare clinically and objectively three articulators: -- the Dentatus, semiadjustable articulator which employs dynamico-static records -- the T.M.J., fully adjustable articulator which employs dynamico-cinematic stereographic endobuccal records -- the Denar, fully adjustable articulator which employs dynamico-cinematic pantographic extrabuccal records.
(6) The pantographic reproducibility index (PRI) has been developed to quantitate incoordinated mandibular movements; one of the signs and symptoms of TMJ dysfunction.
(7) Proper use of a pantograph to program fully adjustable articulators is dependent on stable clutch construction.
(8) A comparison between the pantograph and the polyvinyl siloxane displayed no statistically significant difference in recording condylar inclination.
(9) Other features of the articulator are: (1) a condylar lock mechanism which is activated by only a half turn, (2) adjustable spring tension, (3) precise long centric and wide centric controls, (4) an incisal pain which can be removed and replaced on the articulator without changing its setting, (5) a Bennett movement carefully selected to avoid the complication of a pantograph type of face-bow, and (6) a new sponge wall type of mounting plate which supports both casts for simultaneous mounting.
(10) In an experimental investigation, Stuart pantographic records are geometrically analyzed.
(11) It can be inferred that the actual idling condylar displacement was more inward and upward than that measured by the Pantograph.
(12) Articulator settings were obtained for two subjects 10 times in a 2-week period by using both a lateral interocclusal record technique and a Pantronic pantograph.
(13) The methods of recording immediate side shift from best to worst were: (1) electronic pantograph; (2) polyether interocclusal records; (3) mechanical pantography (Denar) and simplified mandibular motion analyzer (Panadent); (4) simplified mandibular motion analyzer (Whip-Mix and Denar); and (5) zinc oxide interocclusal records.
(14) The incisal point movement was recorded using Sirognathograph Analysing System, and condylar movement was recorded with a pantograph.
(15) For construction of craniopantograph the principles of function of two typical instruments--craniometer and pantograph were used.
(16) Twenty pantographic recordings were transferred to the Stuart fully adjustable articulator.
(17) A clinical experiment was undertaken to study the relationship between occlusal therapy and pantographic reproducibility.
(18) Using this technique a stable centric relation position can be maintained during the maxillary cast mounting procedure and the subsequent setting of the articulator to the pantographic recordings.
(19) Even after removing and reinserting the clutches several times, retention is sufficient to support the weight of the pantograph.
(20) Pantographic tracings were made and transferred to the semiadjustable articulator.
