“…Thus, it has to be equal to or less than 20 μm. 35 A reviewed index assessed the reproducibility and usefulness of instruments that valued occlusion, 35 38 among them were both static and dynamic devices. It was observed how electromyographic records 39 could measure the activation of the jaw musculature and its position, although the cost–benefit relationship of this type of device is not clear.…”

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of conventional occlusal analysis in contrast with digital occlusal analysis in natural dentition. Occlusal analysis allows the identification of normal and abnormal occlusal contact points that alter the craniomandibular cervical system. We searched for articles with keywords [[dental occlusion]], [[natural dentition]], [[occlusal adjustment]], [[Immediate Complete Anterior Guidance Development]] [[mastication]], [[bite force]], [[premature contact]], [[occlusal balance]] [[articulating paper]]], [[spray]], [[Occlusal contacts]], and [[bite strength]]. They were considered observational , odds ratio and case control studies. We found 189 items. After evaluating the abstracts and full texts of the articles, 10 papers met the inclusion criteria. It was found that occlusal analysis allows the identification of the relationship between poor occlusion and the sensitivity of the teeth due to occlusal trauma, which is also related to temporomandibular joint pain in dynamic occlusion. The contacts of greater strength were observed in nonfunctional cusps, 48%, without ruling out the functional cusps, 24%. Despite being the universal method of occlusal control to date, the use of joint paper, remains subjective compared to the digital occlusal control device. Posture is considered directly related to occlusal trauma and temporomandibular disorders; without proper occlusal analysis, a clear diagnosis of the patient's joint condition cannot be obtained. Digital occlusal analysis is more objective than traditional occlusal analysis.

“…Digital evaluation of the occlusion with the T-Scan system enables the clinician to evaluate the occlusal contacts quantitatively and record the occlusion during continuous mandibular movement and will provide additional information such as occlusion and disclusion time on functional occlusion. It would benefit many dental medicine disciplines to recognize the significant advance in occlusal diagnosis and treatment the T-Scan system has represented since its inception 30 years ago [51]. However, the T-Scan III system cannot measure the absolute value of occlusal force [4], and the accuracy and limitations of the measurement for patients with malocclusion, such as crossbite, deep overbite of anterior teeth and open bite need to be further improved.…”

T-Scan III system is one of the most commonly used tools to analyze the bite forces simultaneously on the teeth. As the effectiveness and reliability of T-Scan III are widely studied and recognized, it has many clinical applications in dentistry for the evaluation of dental occlusion in the past decades, such as prosthodontics, orthodontics, and other subjects related to occlusion. This paper reviews the applications of T-Scan III in oral clinic in the past 10 years, and looks forward to its development and application in the future.

Advances in Medical Technologies and Clinical Practice

Since its inception in 1984, Computerized Occlusal Analysis technology has revolutionized both dental Occlusal Science and daily clinical practice, by bringing objective precision measurement to the largely subjectively analyzed Dental Medicine discipline of Occlusion. The development of this technology has required much iteration over the past 30 years beginning with T-Scan I, then T-Scan II for Windows®, then T-Scan III with Turbo recording, to a simplified desktop version introduced in T-Scan 8, to the present-day, state-of-the-art occlusal analysis version known as T-Scan 10. Numerous authors since the mid-1980s have studied the various T-Scan versions, which inspired the manufacturer to improve the hardware and its recording sensors to be more accurate, repeatable, and precise. The present day Novus recording handle represents a major ergonomic and functional upgrade over the Evolution handle that was used up to T-Scan 8, while the T-Scan 9 software has evolved into T-Scan software Version 10, which includes many new high-tech measurement tools like the Digital Impression Overlay (DIO), the Sensitivity Wizard, the Implant Warning feature, and the Force Eraser tool. All of these new system modifications improve the clinician's ability to diagnose and treat a wide range of occlusal abnormalities. Chapter One's Specific Aims are to detail the evolution of the differing T-Scan system versions, while describing the many scientific studies that inspired important system improvements to the T-Scan's accuracy and repeatability, from version to version.
