About this document
Understanding Gothic Arch Tracing by Sahana Rangarajan is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses centric relation, which refers to the relationship between the mandible and maxilla when the jaw is in its most retruded position. There is no agreement on how to define or measure centric relation. Various methods have been proposed to register centric relation, such as Gothic arch tracing and interocclusal records, but there is debate around each method. Abnormal patients may have difficulty achieving the correct centric relation position due to prior malocclusions or prosthetics.
