K7x Evaluation System
The Comprehensive Instrument for Precise Occlusal Evaluation
The K7x Evaluation System
Measuring and recording mandibular function and masticatory muscle status adds invaluable information to the diagnostic process and is critical to neuromuscular dentistry. Objective information about TM joint status further adds to the clinician's data. Evaluation procedures must be accomplished in such a way that the apparatus itself does not affect the patient's function and must not impede the clinician's access to the mouth for bite registration or other procedures. Myotronics evaluation equipment has always been designed with those criteria in mind.

The K7x Evaluation System provides the dental clinician or researcher with three technologies for measuring, displaying, and storing objective data on physiologic and anatomical status and function: jaw tracking, electromyography, and joint sonography. This objective data enhances the doctor's diagnostic and treatment considerations with information not previously available.
The K7x Evaluation System is supplied in a compact housing that can be plugged in to the USB port of virtually any PC type computer, desktop or laptop. Small and portable, the unit and its peripheral apparatus can be quickly stored in the provided protective case for ease of transportation. Windows based software simplifies operation and color graphics make it easy to distinguish overlapping data from multiple channels and to print attractive reports for patient education, insurance or referring doctors. Objective Data for Complete Occlusal Analysis. A number of useful testing protocols referred to as "Scans" are pre-programmed for the convenience of the user. Additional custom protocols may be programmed by the user to fulfill unique needs or preferences.

K7x Jaw Tracking (CMS)
The K7x Jaw Tracking uses multiple sensors in an extremely light weight Sensor Array (four ounce). The K7x tracks the motion of a tiny magnet attached to the lower incisal gingiva with adhesive material and is totally non-invasive and does not interfere with patient function like a clutch. The K7x provides unobstructed access to the oral cavity for taking bite registrations and other clinical procedures, and the system is virtually immune from effects of slight head motion or nearby metallic or electronic interference. A patient education mode is included to simplify patient understanding and staff training.
These scans are invaluable three dimensional representation of mandibular rest, the relaxed neuromuscular path of closure, centric occlusion, habitual path of closure and protrusive guidance that aids the clinician in recording an optimal occlusal position
