A virtual articulator is a computerized simulation tool designed to replicate the functional dynamics of a patient's mandible in three dimensions. It digitally mirrors the functions of a mechanical articulator but offers enhanced precision and integration with digital workflows. By processing digital impressions and jaw movement records, the virtual articulator can analyze occlusal contacts, visualize dynamic interferences, and support the planning of prosthetic restorations with high fidelity. Its integration into CAD/CAM systems enables more efficient communication between clinicians and technicians, contributing to accurate, reproducible, and patient-specific treatment outcomes. As dental practice increasingly shifts toward digital solutions, the virtual articulator plays a pivotal role in streamlining diagnosis, design, and delivery in prosthodontics.
