AIM Controversy over the relationship between occlusion and the progression of periodontal destruction has been ongoing since the beginning of scientific studies of dental diseases. This paper reviews the literature and explores the relationship between trauma from occlusion with periodontal disease in children, presenting recommendations for clinical practice based on the available evidence.

UNLABELLED This second part of the two-part article discusses different types of occlusal contacts and their interferences. It also provides a practical guide to what is required to optimise the restorative treatment outcome. Occlusion and its effect on dental implants are also presented. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Restorative treatment outcome is highly dependent on the occlusion of the restoration ...

Abstract Digital dental models are widely used compared to impressions or plaster-dental for occlusal analysis as well fabrication of prosthodontic and orthodontic appliances. The digital model has been considered one the significant measures occlusion. However, process requires more computation time with less accuracy during re-establishment In this research, a modern method re-establish occlu...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between the morphology of the mandibular dental arch and the maxillary central incisor crown. Cast models from 51 Caucasian individuals, older than 15 years, with optimal occlusion, no previous orthodontic treatment, featuring 4 of the 6 keys to normal occlusion by Andrews (the first being mandatory) were observed. The models were digitalize...

An increased number of teeth in relation to normal dental formula is called hyperdontia, and the additional tooth are termed as supernumerary tooth. A supplemental a that closely resembles shape its adjacent with which they associated supplements for occlusion. Primary dentition presents lower prevalence compared permanent dentition. This report primary

_During the treatment of symptoms originating from disorders of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and occlusion, it was found that restoring the TMJ to its normal condition resulted in a change of general body health. In most cases, this change was improved general body health. Owing to similar reports, a connection between TMJ status and general body health was therefore hypothesised. However,...

Background: To increase the effectiveness of orthodontic treatment in children with various degrees of dental enamel caries resistance using a personified orthodontic treatment. Materials and Methods: The present study included 108 adults (6-16 years old) with the first class of occlusion who referred for the Department of Pediatric Dent...

During the recent decades controversial opinions have dominated the literature on the etiology, diagnostics and treatment of temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) [1]. According to the results of study carried out by Luther, from 7% to 84% of the world population (aged 3-74) suffer from these disorders [2]. In 2013 the TMJ Association in the USA came to the conclusion that approximately 35 mi...

Aim: As to the assessment of occlusal status pertaining to primary canines and molars, the latter is less within reach as it is difficult to guide jaws towards a centric occlusion while maintaining a vintage point in both direct and indirect observation.  This study was originally intended to assess primary canine occlusion as a practical indicator in the evaluation of primary molar occlusion, ...
