TMJ movement characteristics and peculiarities of the facial skeleton. We used the diagnostic display with display options for virtual modelling using CEREC software (Fig 6). Step V: Milling The temporary restorations were traditionally milled (Fig 7). Conclusion The method of real-virtual modelling described in this ar- ticle enables us to guide the anatomical form of restorations using wax reference points with respect to the dynamic TMJ parameters of the patient. The method is a combination of a partial wax-up in the ar- ticulator and virtual computer modelling. With CEREC soft- ware, we are able to create temporary restorations with re- spect to in - dividual jaw move- ments.
