Occlusal concepts for the orthognathic surgeon
Abstract:
A review of modern occlusal concepts is of great value to the orthognathic surgeon in treating dentofacial deformities. A thorough knowledge of occlusion is essential in the correct diagnosis and treatment of patients requiring surgical alterations in their occlusal relationships. Following these surgical alterations, a critical postoperative evaluation is important in determining the timing and need for occlusal equilibration and/or restorative measures.
