Dental Occlusion Diagnosis
At Bludental centers, it is possible to perform a comprehensive occlusal balance analysis using a specialized medical device.
What does it involve?
This is a wireless device designed to detect dental occlusion parameters in a simple, fast, and non-invasive manner. Utilizing 4 probes applied with adhesive electrodes near the patient’s anterior temporal and masseter muscles, it analyzes the electrical impulses generated by the activity of these muscles.
The examination consists of two muscle activity measurement tests. The first one, the calibration test, involves placing two cotton rolls between the dental arches in maximum intercuspationāmeaning clenching the bite as tightly as possible.
The second test is performed utilizing the natural intercuspation of the arches, allowing for the detection of the parameters across the entire occlusal surface.
Each test lasts 5 seconds. Upon completion, the device processes the recorded muscle activity values and provides the dentist with accurate, objective parameters of the patient’s dental occlusion. This is presented through a clear graphical representation, enabling the clinician to show the patient their specific occlusal condition and the necessary interventions to improve it.
Why choose it?
It is an innovative, scientifically validated diagnostic tool that enables dentists to perform an extremely meticulous and non-invasive analysis of the patient’s occlusal condition, plan treatments, and evaluate their long-term effectiveness.
Dentists can finally measure what was previously only observable through objective physical examination, making it quantifiable and comparable over time. Indeed, the device delivers objective data regarding the patient’s baseline condition and the results achieved throughout the treatment.
This tool is essential, particularly during prosthetic rehabilitation, to verify that the occlusion is correctly aligned and to ensure the patient does not experience muscle disorders or strain on the temporo mandibular joint
Bludental centers are at your service for oral health care, offering a wide range of dental treatments. From standard teeth cleanings to aesthetic treatments like invisible orthodontics and teeth whitening, all the way to more complex procedures for dental implants and prosthetics.
