  • Title: Various clinical situations and their influence on linear occlusion in treating combination syndrome: a discussion of treatment options.
    Author: Jameson WS.
    Journal: Gen Dent; 2003; 51(5):443-7. PubMed ID: 15055634.
    Abstract:
    Eliminating anterior tooth contact is paramount when treating combination syndrome. It is possible to do so through the use of linear occlusion with a non-interceptive arrangement and the bilateral fulcrum of protrusive stability. The presence of mandibular anterior teeth often complicates this procedure. When establishing the horizontal plane of occlusion, clinical circumstances often necessitate modifications; nevertheless, certain principles must be incorporated into the design of the prostheses. Clinical circumstances may dictate altering the approach but these principles must be maintained to eliminate anterior hyperfunction.
