<strong>Bausch</strong> - Name and Concept for<br />
<strong>Articulating</strong>-Test-Materials<br />
The correct physiological recovery of the occlusion poses as much a challenge as ever for every<br />
dentist and technician. Even the smallest high spots measuring just a few microns can cause<br />
dysfunctions (mostly pain dysfunction syndrome - TMD) in patients. Occlusal proportions are being<br />
constantly changed with every procedure. Therefore, an understanding of the synergy of the teeth<br />
in static and dynamic occlusion forms the basis of good dentistry.<br />
Since 1953, Dr. Jean <strong>Bausch</strong> KG has specialized in manufacturing of special articulating –<br />
occlusion test materials designed to represent occlusal proportions on the masticatory surfaces as<br />
true to nature as possible. From the outset, the founders of the company, dentists Dr. Jean <strong>Bausch</strong><br />
and Dr. Hans <strong>Bausch</strong>, recognized the need to use pressure-sensitive articulating paper in order to<br />
present all the different masticatory forces in various colors. The principle of progressive color<br />
transfer remains an important method for the accurate detection of high spots.<br />
Achieving visible markings on problematic surfaces such as gold, metal alloys and ceramics, but<br />
especially on moist occlusal surfaces represents another challenge.<br />
We have also set our sights on achieving optimum color transfer even with ultra-thin occlusion test<br />
films. Our new test films are produced with an improved color coating, which can transfer more<br />
effectively onto polished masticatory surfaces because of its hydrophilic properties. Adding certain<br />
substances has also solved the problem of static loading.<br />
As one of the the world’s leading manufacturers in this domain, we offer an extensive range of<br />
different articulating papers and articulating test-films in different shapes, sizes and colors. All our<br />
products are manufactured strictly in compliance with the European Medical-Products Decree and<br />
are constantly monitored by our Quality Assurance Department. The raw materials used are<br />
physiologically safe, and comply with stringent cosmetic, food and pharmacological standards.<br />
We are particularly indebted to the founder of our company, Dr. Hans <strong>Bausch</strong>, for his life’s work.<br />
Dr. <strong>Bausch</strong> unfortunately passed away in the Fall of 1998 at the age of 70, and was therefore<br />
unable to witness the completion of our new production plant. With his driving force and vision,<br />
Dr. Hans <strong>Bausch</strong> laid the foundation for modern occlusal test-films. Armed with additional product<br />
innovations, the family will now carry this tradition into the future.<br />
