Evaluation of the occlusal plane in dentulous patients in relation to maxillomandibular space in Kashmiri population

Abstract

It is an arduous task to establish the occlusal plane in its correct position in edentulous patients after loss of all teeth. Improper establishment of the occlusal plane affects not only esthetics but function as well in edentate population. Amis and objectives of the study: So, a study was conducted to establish the occlusal plane in edentulous patients in relation to maxillomandibular space with the aid of cephalometric.Materials and Methods: Subjects were dentulous with Angles class I occlusion Results: Results indicated that there was a significant correlation between Occlusal maxillary plane angle and maxillomandibular space height and length Conclusion: This study may prove helpful in restoring esthetics and function in full mouth rehabilitation cases.
