Bausch Arti-Check Micro-Thin. 0016" (40 Microns) Blue Articulating Papers, 200/Pack are precision occlusal marking strips designed for dental teams to identify contact points with clarity and accuracy during restorative procedures, adjustments, and occlusal evaluations. These extremely thin and tear-resistant strips deliver consistent, reliable markings without interfering with the bite. This Complete Buyer's Guide clarifies selection and maintains predictable occlusal analysis with trusted Bausch products.

What makes this product stand out?

Bausch Arti-Check Micro-Thin Strips are engineered for clinicians who demand high-visibility occlusal markings in an extremely thin format that adapts easily to interocclusal areas. At .0016", these micro-thin strips are exceptionally thin and tear-resistant, minimizing vertical interference to allow natural bite closure and accurate contact indication. The special coating with liquid colors facilitates accurate marking of all occlusal contacts or occlusal interferences. These articulating strips provide dependable performance in a convenient plastic dispenser format.

Key advantages include:

  • Micro-thin .0016" (40 microns) thickness allows accurate occlusal contact detection with minimal bite distortion
  • Extremely thin and tear-resistant construction maintains integrity during clinical use
  • Special coating with liquid colors facilitates accurate marking of all occlusal contacts or occlusal interferences
  • Blue dye produces clear, high-contrast markings on enamel, composites, ceramics, and metal restorations
  • 200 pre-cut strips in a plastic dispenser support consistent use across operatories with convenient dispensing

What is this product made of?

Arti-Check Micro-Thins are crafted from high-quality paper impregnated with a stable, vivid blue dye formulated for crisp transfer under occlusal pressure. The micro-thin material minimizes thickness while maintaining strength, allowing clinicians to assess occlusal contacts without altering the patient’s bite.

At-a-glance comparison:

  • Micro-thin strips vs. standard paper: micro-thin strips provide less vertical interference, giving more accurate contact information than thicker papers.
  • Pre-cut strips vs long rolls: pre-cut strips save time and ensure a consistent size for repeated occlusal evaluations.

This construction supports efficient, repeatable occlusal analysis and adjustment.

What is it used for?

Bausch Arti-Check Micro-Thin is used to visually identify occlusal contact points, high spots, and interferences during a variety of clinical procedures where bite analysis is important.

Common applications include:

  • Checking and adjusting occlusion after restorative procedures (crowns, bridges, fillings)
  • Diagnosing occlusal interferences during comprehensive exams
  • Evaluating contact patterns before prosthetic placement
  • Adjusting occlusion in orthodontic and TMJ-related evaluations
  • Fine-tuning bite contacts in removable prosthetic insertion

Thickness and interference:

The micro-thin strips offer minimal thickness for precise markings without creating added vertical separation between opposing dentitions.

Dye visibility:

The blue articulating medium produces sharp contrast on enamel, composite, ceramic, and metal surfaces, making contact points easy to interpret across varied restorative materials.

Pack quantity:

A 200-strip supports high clinical workloads, allowing multiple evaluations per operatory each day with convenient one-handed dispensing.

Pre-cut strips are convenient for rapid deployment during operatory procedures versus cutting paper from longer rolls. The plastic dispenser aids clinician technique and reduces setup time with one-handed access.

Bausch Articulating Paper Micro-Thin Strips are an excellent choice when precision, clarity of marking, and clinician confidence are essential.
