Concepts of Occlusion in Prosthodontics-A Review Ahamed Aadil S*, Dr. Dhanraj M Dept of Prosthodontics, Saveetha Dental College and Hospitals, Chennai *Corresponding Author E-mail: aadilahamed5@gmail.com
Online published on 29 April, 2017. Abstract Occlusion and its relationship to the function of the stomatognathic system have been widely studied in dentistry since many decades. This series of articles describe about occlusion in the complete denture, fixed partial denture, and implants. Part I and II of this articles series describe concepts and philosophies of occlusion in complete denture. So far, available research has not concluded a superior tooth form or occlusal scheme to satisfy the requirements of completely edentulous patients with respect to comfort, mastication, pphonetics, and esthetics. Since then, several balanced and nonbalanced articulation concepts were proposed in the literature. A balanced articulation appears to be most appropriate because of tooth contacts observed during nonfunctional activities of patients. This article discusses about evolution of different concepts of occlusion and occlusal schemes in complete denture occlusion. Top Keywords Articulation, complete denture, occlusion. Top | |
