Relationship between occlusal tooth contact patterns and tightness of proximal tooth contact

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2006
summary  The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between occlusal tooth contact patterns and the tightness of proximal tooth contact (TPTC) during clenching. Twenty young adult volunteers with healthy dentition participated in the study.

Tooth Contact in Patients with Temporomandibular Disorders

CRANIO®, 2005
Both experimental and retrospective studies suggest a link between parafunctions and pain in temporomandibular disorder (TMD) patients. To investigate the role of parafunctions in TMD, experience sampling methodology was used as a prospective test of the hypothesis that patients with TMD have higher levels of tooth contact and tension than non-TMD ...

An analysis of tooth position on initial tooth contact

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1983
SummaryA closed circuit television movement detector was used to study mandibular movement in the form of tooth tapping, in subjects with no apparent dental disease or malocclusion. The velocity and form of various phases of movement was studied, in the transverse, sagittal and coronal planes, from measurements made on u.v.

Physiologic stress and tooth contact

Journal of Periodontal Research, 1969
This investigation was undertaken to study the relationship between physiologic data, such as pulse rate and stroke volume, to the occurrence of tooth contacts. The tooth contacts were monitored in the intercuspal (I.C.) position and lateral or eccentric to this position with the aid of radio‐transmitters constructed into dental bridgework as described

An experimental investigation into dental wear: Tooth-tooth contact

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part J: Journal of Engineering Tribology, 2010
This work discusses some experiments with respect to the sliding contact between human teeth. The objective is to study whether in-depth investigations into the dominant wear modes in dental wear can be made using a standard tribotester with samples manufactured from natural teeth.

A method for simultaneous electromyographic and tooth-contact recording

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1970
R adiotelemetry has been the principal method used in recent years to directly record tooth contact.l-O This method is effective, because it does not disturb normal masticatory function during experimental procedures. However, one of the limitations of the method has been that it requires alteration of tooth structure to facilitate incorporation of the

Tooth contact patterns in patients with temporomandibular dysfunction

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1991
SummaryThe occlusal tooth contact patterns in patients with temporomandibular dysfunction and normal subjects were studied under a range of conditions using a newly devised radiotelemetry system. The patterns in the patient group were completely different from those in the control group.
