When considering the “HORIZONTAL GAZE” for each of these skulls one will note that picture “A” skull could have the head tipped slightly more downward to improve a level eye gaze which would increase the occlusal plane angle relative to the horizontal table approaching what I would consider a better more anatomical relationship.
Seeing the bigger picture and correlating these key principles to earths gravitational forces and cervical muscular balance works best and compliments the clinician's cosmetic treatment when a clear and balanced understanding of these foundational occlusal plane concepts are presented in an unbiased manner.
We cover the clinical and laboratory aspects more extensively in our Level 6 Occlusion Connections training. I hope many of you would consider coming to our OC courses to learn "why and what I do" to help my esthetic/TMD cases. It is impossible to convey all these great concepts in just a short posting.
