Question 171 · LDEK · Mandibular movements and articulators

Fischer’s angle is an angle:

  1. A. between Camper’s plane and Frankfurt’s plane.
  2. B. between the condyle path during protrusion movement and the lateral track of this condyle on the non-working side, in the horizontal plane.
  3. C. between the condyle path during protrusion movement and the lateral track of this condyle on the non-working side, in the frontal plane.
  4. D. between the condyle path during protrusion movement and the lateral track of this condyle on the non-working side, in the sagittal plane.
  5. E. none of the above.
Hint

Bennett's and Fischer's angles compare the same two condylar paths; they differ only in the projection plane.
