Even the smallest high spots measuring just a few microns can cause dysfunctions (very often TMD) in the patient and may even obstruct swallowing.

The occlusal contacts often have a very small diameter which is scarcely discernible on highly polished ceramic or metal surfaces. The test material should be extremely thin to ensure and delineate the exact contour of the actual occlusal contacts. The test material should be tear-resistant when testing eccentric movement as well as resilience. Bausch occlusion test films meet all these requirements and are characterized by colorintense marking especially on occlusal surfaces which are hard to test.It also has hydrophilic components to improve the color transfer even on moist occlusal surfaces.

We offer our special Y-Holder (BK 140) to facilitate handling. This holder is designed so that the supporting pin of the articulator passes the holder.

The 22 mm-wide films are available in five different shades. These films are available with double-sided color coating in order to mark antagonistic contacts.

A white occlusion film specially designed for colored modeling waxes is also available. White contact spots stand out well on dark backgrounds, especially on blue or grey modeling wax. This film also marks effectively on polished metal surfaces.
