Comparison of excursive occlusal force parameters in post-orthodontic and non-orthodontic subjects using T-Scan® III
TLDR
Significantly longer disclusion time, higher posterior frictional contacts, and more TMD symptoms were observed in the post-orthodontics group, suggesting that orthodontic treatment increases posterior tooth friction.Abstract:
Objective: Published studies indicate that orthodontically treated patients demonstrate increased posterior occlusal friction contributing to temporomandibular disorder (TMD) symptoms. This study investigated measured excursive movement occlusal contact parameters and their association with TMD symptoms between non- and post-orthodontic subjects.Methods: Twenty-five post-orthodontic and 25 non-orthodontic subjects underwent T-Scan® computerized occlusal analysis to determine their disclusion time (DT), the excursive frictional contacts, and occlusal scheme. Each subject answered a TMD questionnaire to determine the presence or absence of TMD symptoms. Statistical analysis compared the within group and between group differences (p < 0.05).Results: Statistically significant differences were observed in the disclusion time: DT = 2.69 s in the post-orthodontic and 1.36 s in the non-orthodontic group. In the non-orthodontic group, 72.7% working and 27.3% non-working side contacts were seen, while in th...read more

TL;DR: T-Scan is good for assessing occlusion discrepancies and can be used to portray the pre- and post-operative occlusal contact distribution during treatment planning and follow-up, and was better after surgery than before surgery.

TL;DR: T-scan is a reliable method for measuring the OCA, but the 3D surface scan is not, and occlusal registration showed a high validity.

TL;DR: These measurements are difficult and the reliability of the result depends on a number of factors, such as presence of pain and temporomandibular disorders, gender, age, cranio-facial morphology, and occlusal factors.
