The MIK Dental Leaf Gauge offers a fast, effective way to deprogram muscles, capture true centric relation, and guide accurate occlusal equilibration. 

Its smooth, micron-thin sheets are designed for comfort and control, helping you align the mandible naturally and adjust contacts with precision. 

It’s also ideal for recording vertical dimension- especially in digital workflows where you can easily add or remove leaves to fine-tune the position effortlessly. 

Fast to use, easy to adjust, and essential for modern occlusal diagnostics—this is the quick deprogrammer your practice has been waiting for. 

• Muscle deprogramming for natural condylar seating.

• Micron-thin flexible leaves for precise adjustments.
• Each leaf is ~ 0.1 mm (100 microns) thickness.
• 60 leaves per gauge.
• Smooth, comfortable design for effortless patient use.
• Easily stackable to control vertical separation.
• Ideal for muscle deprogramming and centric relation recording.
• Perfect for recording and fine-tuning vertical dimension (VDO).
• Seamless integration with digital and analog workflows.

For Centric Relation Recording in Full Mouth Rehab (FMR) Cases  

• Step 1: Insert a selected number of leaves between the anterior teeth along the midline.  
• Step 2: Ask the patient to tap gently and hold, ensuring posterior disclusion.  • Perform guided mandibular movements to deprogram muscles.  
• Step 3: Confirm the absence of posterior contact and record centric relation after load testing the TM Joint.  

For TMD Diagnosis  

• Step 1: Use the leaf gauge to gently deprogram masticatory muscles.  • Have the patient perform small protrusive-retrusive movements.  
• Step 2: Observe changes in symptoms and muscle tension to aid in diagnosis of joint or muscular dysfunction. 

For Recording and Adjusting Vertical Dimension (VD)  

• Step 1: Incrementally add or remove leaves to achieve the desired interocclusal separation.  
• Step 2: Use for VD recordings during diagnostic wax-ups or digital smile design.  

 For Occlusal Equilibration  

• Step 1: Place sufficient leaves to disclude posterior teeth slightly.  
• Step 2: Reduce leave incrementally, identify and adjust premature occlusal contacts precisely. 
• Step 3: Sequentially refine occlusion till all teeth contact simultaneously with no leaves to create disclusion.

• Designed for fast, reliable muscle deprogramming and centric relation recording.
• Micron-precision control for vertical dimension adjustments.
• Ideal for occlusal equilibration, FMR, TMD diagnosis, and digital workflows.
• Easily add or remove leaves to fine-tune occlusal positions effortlessly.
• Smooth, flexible leaves ensure patient comfort and ease of use.
• Lightweight, durable, and clinically essential for functional dentistry.
• Small Leaves, Big Results.
