Occlusal adjustment: principles and practice

H S Gray

    The New Zealand Dental Journal
    |March 1, 1994

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Occlusal adjustment reshapes teeth for optimal bite function but is irreversible. Regular reviews are essential as the dynamic bite system means stability is rarely permanent.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Biomechanical Engineering

    Background:

    • Occlusal adjustment is a significant dental intervention.
    • It aims to establish a mutually protected occlusion.
    • This therapy is invasive and irreversible.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the long-term stability of occlusal adjustments.
    • To underscore the importance of regular follow-up in occlusal therapy.

    Main Methods:

    • Selective reshaping of occlusal tooth surfaces.
    • Achieving criteria for optimum and mutually protected occlusion.
    • Application primarily in Class I occlusion cases.

    Main Results:

    • The procedure is rational and practical, developed over 50 years ago.

  • Occlusal stability is often not permanent due to the dynamic masticatory system.

    • Conclusions:

    • Occlusal adjustment is not a prophylactic measure and requires careful consideration.
    • Ongoing monitoring and review are crucial for maintaining occlusal stability post-treatment.
