Title: [Which occlusal concept for complete edentulism?]. Author: Mariani P. Journal: Chir Dent Fr; 1989 Jun 15; 59(477):63-8. PubMed ID: 2698324. Abstract: Complete edentulous patients have lost a part of their "body shema". Must one re-build the missing teeth according to a purely theoretical concept called "bilaterally balanced occlusion"? Or should one reproduce natural occlusion through "canine protection" or "group function" arrangement of prosthetic teeth? We will attempt to find an answer to this question in referring to a bibliographical review and in analysing the different arguments.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
