The Papillameter is an important
measuring device used by the dentist to gain more accurate, personalized
esthetic results in denture and denture-related implant cases.
The Papillameter takes the measurement of the length of your patient's
upper lip. This enables the dental technician to establish the
anterior length of the upper ant teeth, simply, accurately and
individually for each patient.
It consists of:
Vestibule Shield
Incisive Papilla Rest
Vertical handle for measuring lip length
Instructions For Use
Have the patient standing or sitting
upright for this procedure.
Holding the Papillameter perpendicular
to the floor, place the Incisive Papilla
Rest on the incisive papilla. Make sure
the lip is at it's full rest position and
not pushed or pulled upwards or outwards
by the Papillameter.
Read the measurement with eyes on a level
with the low lip line.
Now specify the Papillameter reading
on the Laboratory Authorization Form.
