In a mean value articulator (MVA), the fourth value typically refers to the intercondylar distance, which is the measurement between the centers of the condyles. This value is crucial for accurately replicating the hinge axis of the jaw, allowing for proper occlusal relationships and movements during dental prosthetic work. The MVA helps in obtaining consistent and repeatable results in dental restorations and treatments.

What should we call a vertical rod in mean value articulator?
In a mean value articulator, the vertical rod is commonly referred to as the "vertical axis rod" or "vertical axis pin." This component is crucial for establishing the hinge axis of the articulator, allowing for accurate replication of the patient's occlusal relationships and movements. Proper alignment and adjustment of this rod are essential for achieving precise articulation in dental restorations.

Why frankfort horizontal plane is used in facebow transfer?
The plane defined by the upper border of the bony auditory meatus (porion) bilaterally and the lowest point of the left orbit rim (orbitale) was accepted by the World Congress on Anthropology (Frankfurt) in 1884 as the horizontal reference for human craniometrics. As the science of Gnathology was developed in the 1920s (Charles Stuart, B. B. McCullum, and others) and sophisticated articulator technology to support it, the Frankfort was accepted (by convention) as the reference plane for orientation of the maxillary cast to the upper member of the articulator. All fully- or semi-adjustable articulator systems incorporate a device (usually, facebow or earbow) to record the relationship of the maxillary dental arch to these three points to transfer that relationship to the maxillary cast and articulator.
