Abstract:

The occlusion and the mandible position are interrelated within a constantly changing balance. Alterations in occlusion can lead to changes in the mandible position, and vice versa. In clinical work, this balance can be disrupted due to changes in the bite, resulting in various corresponding manifestations; it can be rebuilt to achieve the therapeutic purpose by articulation. Given the limitation of tools, traditional interventions produce large systematic errors when adjusting the occlusal position, resulting in unstable clinical treatment effects with difficulties in operations. With the help of a no-vel digital workflow, a personalized fine digital occlusion model can be built based on the patient’s CT data and digital dental cast. Precise articulation is then entitled, with the previous systematic error eliminated. The clinical outcome is enhanced, and the treatment efficiency is improved. In addition, digitalization can standardize the clinical operation process, reduce the skill demand, and make remote diagnosis and treatment planning possible in near future.

Key words: jaw position adjustment, virtue articulator, remote treatment planning, AVIA system
