stablishing the correct vertical dimension is an important part of prosthodontic assessment and restorative treatment planning. The Smart Venus Gauge helps dental professionals measure the distance between selected facial landmarks to assess the Vertical Dimension of Occlusion (VDO).

Its dual-sided design supports two measurement methods. The straight arms measure the distance from the center of the eye to the meeting point of the upper and lower lips, while the curved chin bar measures from the base of the nose to the lowest point of the chin. A sliding measuring bar allows the instrument to be positioned against the chosen reference points, and the engraved scale makes readings easier to observe and record.

Once the measuring tips are correctly positioned, the locking screw secures the setting for repeatable readings. Rounded contact tips are designed to improve comfort during placement, while the surgical-grade stainless-steel construction provides durability and corrosion resistance. The instrument is listed as autoclavable up to 135°C, following the manufacturer's cleaning and sterilization instructions.

The Smart Venus Gauge is intended for VDO assessment in workflows involving complete dentures, implant-supported prostheses, full-mouth rehabilitation, occlusal analysis, and restorative treatment planning.

3. Adjust the Gauge

Slide the measuring bar until both reference points are accurately contacted.

4. Lock the Measurement

Tighten the locking screw to securely hold the recorded measurement.

5. Record the Reading

Read the engraved scale and document the measurement for treatment planning or future reference.

6. Clean & Sterilize

After each use, thoroughly clean the instrument and sterilize it according to standard dental infection control protocols (Autoclavable up to 135°C).
