Checking the occlusion using the 2-step method
from Bausch Catalogue EN

To visualize contacts on saliva moistened surfaces, we recommend using progressive test materials in combination with thinner foils.
In the first step, the occlusion should be checked with Articulating Paper 200 μm or "PROGRESS 100" 100 μm. These papers absorb saliva and thus create a perfect basis for an accurately pinpoint marking of contact points with Arti-Fol® metallic 12μm or Arti-Fol® 8μm foil in the second step.
The advantages of this 2-step method are:
•Differentiated representation of occlusal points and sur- faces •High-contrast representation by different colors •Improved color transfer of occlusion films onto surfaces exposed to saliva by prior transfer of the bonding agent Transculase® .
