Abstract
Evaluation of condylar position is a critical step in orthodontic diagnosis. Diagnosis using an articulator-mounted model helps orthodontists establish an orthodontic treatment plan on the basis of centric relation occlusion (CRO). The quantitated condylar position obtained from an articulator can be transferred to a lateral cephalogram taken in maximum intercuspal position (MIP) using a MIP-CRO conversion technique. This article details the step-by-step procedure with comprehensive illustrations for applying MIP-CRO conversion for diagnosis. The results of the MIP-CRO conversion provide a more accurate and predictable orthodontic treatment plan.
