Left: The following calculations are projected on the cephalometric x-ray: Angle between upper occlusal plane and AOP (7.8), distance from the articulator’s hinge axis perpendicular to the upper occlusal plane (35.8mm), and the distance from the latter intersection to the upper incisor edge (89.9mm). Right: Movement of the hinge axis pivot according to the calculated distances following clock wise rotation of the all objects around upper incisor edge. Upper and lower jaw are thereby arbitrarily aligned to the AOP in Meshmixer’s world frame
