“…14,15,21,22 T-Scan system has been defined as an easy, fast, convenient and accurate method for recording tooth contacts. 15,22,40,41 The electronic Mylar recording sensor contains 2200 force recording units, and is 100 μm thick, which lies well within the average thickness range of commonly employed occlusal indicators from 8 o 200 μm. 15,42 There are also significant differences between the average number of contacts reported with light versus heavy pressure, 7,20,25 suggesting that an important aim of occlusal adjustment from a statistical point of view should be to bring the number of occlusal contacts at light pressure to equal that at hard pressure.…”

Background Evaluating occlusal contacts during maximum intercuspation is one of the requirements for guiding clinicians during occlusal corrections and has been a topic of considerable importance for researchers over many decades. Objective This systematised review intends to evaluate the average number of occlusal contacts present in dentate adults, as documented within the dental literature over the past four decades (1980s–2022). Methodology Electronic searches were conducted in three databases (PubMed, Livivo and Ovid) using a combination of search words. Results A total of 651 records were identified through PubMed and another 37 records through Livivo and Ovid databases. After eliminating duplicates and irrelevant records, 168 records were screened. Full texts of 61 articles remained, out of which 18 relevant papers that presented occlusal contacts in quantifiable value were considered. Various occlusal indicators, such as articulating paper, wax sheets, shimstock foil, impression material, gnathodynamometers and digital occlusal analysis systems, were used to evaluate occlusal contacts. The number of occlusal contacts widely ranged from 11 to 70. These variations likely depends upon the type and technique of occlusal indicator used, diversity among sampled populations and differing data collection procedures. Conclusion Different methods of identifying occlusal contacts in the intercuspal position yield different numbers and patterns of contacts, depending on the nature and physical properties of the indicators used.

Background: All disciplines of dentistry require that clinicians assess the articulation of the teeth/prosthesis with respect to simultaneous contacts, bite force and timing.Aim: This article intends to describe the advantages and limitations of the data acquired when using a digital occlusal analysis as a dynamic occlusal indicator.Methodology: A search of the literature was completed (Medline, PubMed) using the keywords occlusion, occlusal registration, computerized occlusal analysis and T-Scan for dental.Results: According to the evidence available, the digital occlusal analysis system is the only occlusal indicator that demonstrates the ability to provide quantifiable force and time variance in a real-time window from the initial tooth contact into maximum intercuspation.Conclusion: The reported advantages to accurately indicate occlusal contacts make the digital occlusal analysis system a better occlusal indicator when compared with other non-digital convention indicator materials available.

“…[40][41][42][43][44][45] Additionally, computerized occlusal analysis devices offer a digital alternative to quantitatively assess and visualize the pressure and timing of occlusal contacts. 41,[46][47][48][49] Classical gnathology assumed that dental occlusion was a mechanical constant and reproducible. 46,47 However, studies published in the dental literature have revealed occlusal variations can result from recordings made at different times of day, stress, proprioception, body position, and temporomandibular joint dysfunction.…”

Objectives Within the development of digital technologies, dental professionals aim to integrate virtual diagnostic articulated casts obtained by using intraoral scanners (IOSs), the mandibular motion of the patient recorded by using an optical jaw tracking system, and the information provided by computerized occlusal analysis systems. This article describes the various digital technologies available for obtaining the digital occlusion of a patient and outlines its challenges and limitations. Overview The factors that influence the accuracy of the maxillomandibular relationship of diagnostic casts obtained by using IOSs are reviewed, as well as the occurrence of occlusal collisions or mesh interpenetrations. Different jaw tracking systems with varying digital technologies including ultrasonic systems, photometric devices, and artificial intelligence algorithms are reviewed. Computerized occlusal analysis systems for detecting occlusal contacts in a time sequential manner with the pressure distribution on the occlusal surfaces are reviewed. Conclusions Digital technologies provide powerful diagnostic and design tools for prosthodontic care. However, the accuracy of these digital technologies for acquiring and analyzing the static and dynamic occlusion need to be further analyzed. Clinical Significance Efficiently implementing digital technologies into dental practice requires an understanding of the limitations and state of current development of the digital acquisition methods for digitizing the static and dynamic occlusion of a patient by using IOSs, digital jaw trackers, and computerized occlusal analysis devices.
