Articulators are vital for understanding occlusion, but large, complex models are not always necessary for every task. This Small Adjustable Magnetic Articulator offers a modern, compact, and user-friendly solution for mounting study models, fabricating small prosthetic devices like night guards, or working on single-tooth models, all at an accessible factory-direct price.
Its most significant feature is the magnetic mounting system. Models are attached to magnetic plates using quick-setting plaster or stone. This allows for instantaneous and secure attachment and detachment of the models from the articulator itself. This saves a tremendous amount of time compared to traditional screw-based systems, as models can be switched in and out in seconds without tools.
Despite its small size, it often includes key adjustable features such as an incisal pin to maintain vertical dimension and adjustable condylar guidance to simulate basic jaw movements. The construction is typically from strong, lightweight aluminum or engineered polymer, making it durable yet easy to handle.
This type of articulator is perfect for dental students learning about occlusion, for general dentists who need a quick way to analyze study models or fabricate simple appliances, or for labs that require a secondary, efficient articulator for smaller jobs. The combination of magnetic convenience, essential functionality, and a compact footprint makes it an incredibly useful and space-saving addition to any clinical or laboratory setting.
