Comparative Study Qualitative and Quantitative Techniques in the Study of Occlusion.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The wide variety of methods for recording occlusal contacts and the contradictory data on the interpretation of the obtained markings provoked us to make a comparative laboratory study between different occlusal indicators.

Purpose

Evaluation of a qualitative and quantitative method for registration of occlusal contacts in static occlusion in laboratory conditions.

Materials and methods

In completion of the objective, we designed an apparatus for registration of the occlusal contacts (AROC) in static occlusion which is used, corresponding to the MIP in clinical conditions. The occlusal indicators that were included in the study were articulating paper 100 μ, articulating foil 12 μ, and T-Scan Novus system with a sensor thickness of 100 μ<
