A significant occlusal force discrepancy was found in the post-orthodontic subjects, with higher force percentages observed posteriorly and much less percentage force anteriorly, when compared to the natural dentition subjects. T-Scan® III digital occlusal analysis may be recommended for orthodontic case finishing, to make visible to the clinician the severity of the orthodontically created occlusal force imbalance, such that it can be minimized during orthodontic case finishing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
