Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It has been concluded that edentulous patients prefer anatomic occlusal schemes to non-anatomic teeth, and canine guidance seems to be efficace in terms of chewing comfort and dentures’ retention, as well as lingualized occlusion.

TL;DR: Functional maxillary denture is in medical dentistry the successful culmination of human's high practice and represents the golden goal sought by every dental practitioner and expected by every denture patient.
Abstract: Single maxillary denture often represents vigorous challenge to the practicing dentists. The difficulty arises when the maxillary dentures are set to fit the occlusion of natural mandibular teeth. The functionally generated pathway technique registers occlusal pathways of the posterior teeth in functional wax and is described as the "three-dimensional static expression consists of dynamic tooth movement." The current article represents a technique for a patient who was rehabilitated with a maxillary complete denture, and a harmonious occlusion was achieved between the complete denture and the mandibular natural dentition. Functional maxillary denture is therefore in medical dentistry the successful culmination of human's high practice and represents the golden goal sought by every dental practitioner and expected by every denture patient.

TL;DR: Changing the occlusal scheme is a critical step in solving patients’ TMD problems; however, it is underappreciated and underutilized.
Abstract: Careful evaluation of the occlusal scheme with an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan before orthodontically modifying the occlusion is a critical step in solving patients’ TMD problems; however, it is underappreciated and underutilized. To begin, the goals of occlusal treatment must be clearly defined before starting treatment. They should not be ambiguous, and clear goals are needed for each area affected with treatment. Changing the occlusion will influence the following areas: Functional occlusion TMJ Three-dimensional position of the mandible Periodontal tissues Dental and facial esthetics

TL;DR: In this paper, the occlusal surfaces of posterior artificial teeth are designed in a digital environment to provide effective, consistent functional set-up and performance, especially across a variety of occlusion schemes, in the preparation of dental prostheses.
Abstract: The invention relates to methods for digitally designing artificial teeth for use in a dental prosthesis and/or dental restoration. Methods of designing natural-looking, functional artificial teeth, based on computer-aided design, utilize reference dentition articulated in a predetermined occlusal scheme as a basis for effective design. In particular, the occlusal surfaces of posterior artificial teeth are designed in a digital environment to provide effective, consistent functional set-up and performance, especially across a variety of occlusal schemes, in the preparation of dental prostheses.
