Abstract: A system useful for recording or providing information concerning the optimal esthetic position and angulation of the anterior teeth of a dental patient during restoration of teeth with crowns or the construction of dental prostheses, the system utilizes five principal components:a multi purpose positioning face bow including curved side arms adjustably interconnected by a linakage device for suspension from the ears of a patient with the linkage device and an associated bracket positioned below mouth level,the bracket adapted to support either, an adjustable transparent screen in a substantially vertical plane and positioned relative to a patient's mouth to obtain a transferable prescription of the position and angulation of anterior teeth for use on an articulator in another place, or a bite fork jig providing support for a interchangeable and invertible bite fork and an adjustable nose pointer, or a camera positioning frame for mounting a camera in fixed and constant relationship with the patient's anterio
