Estimation of effectiveness of different anatomical landmarks in re-establishing lost occlusal plane in edentates: An all-inclusive review of literature
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical and Health Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
In both natural and artificial dentitions, the plane of occlusion plays an important role in fulfilling the important criteria of function and esthetics. During teeth arrangement, it is generally advised that the artificial teeth be placed in the positions previously occupied by the natural teeth. This literature review has attempted to explore chronological perspectives, past researches, various concepts, dilemmas and modern outlooks for re-establishment of lost occlusal plane in completely edentulous patients. A widespread literature search was done using MEDLINE/PubMed database and other research bibliographic databases using Medical Subject Headings (MeSH). All papers including original studies, case series and case reports were obtained and examined from 1967 to 2018. Many of the researchers evidenced to use Camper’s plane for re-orientation of occlusal plane though there is considerable deficiency of authentic research studies and reliable data that possibly will recommend a single consistent marker for perfect occlusal plane reorientation in diversity of patients.
