Abstract

This article explores the importance of achieving orthopedic stability, focusing on occlusal splints designed using advanced technologies like intraoral scanners and virtual articulators. These splints aid in repositioning condyles, stabilizing dental occlusion, reducing muscular hyperactivity, and alleviating symptoms of temporomandibular dysfunction.

Central to these advancements is ModJaw^TM, a 4D kinematic imaging device that accurately records mandibular movements and condylar trajectories. ModJaw^TM enhances diagnosis and treatment planning by visualizing dynamic occlusal contacts, detecting chewing anomalies, allowing virtual mountings and enabling precise adjustments.

Two clinical cases are shown demonstrating successful outcomes using ModJaw^TM data in orthodontic interventions, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the arc of closure for achieving desired orthopedic stability and optimal occlusion.
