The document discusses the relationship between posture and bites. It states that an individual's unique bite is determined by the axis of their trunk and head position. An ideal bite, called ideal occlusion, is when the bite plane matches this axis. An overclosed or abnormal bite causes forces above the axis, which can lead to temporomandibular joint issues and cervical problems. A moire topography photo can evaluate an individual's axis and determine if their bite and posture are normal or abnormal. Treatment for abnormal bites or posture imbalances involves using a bite splint to correct the posture over time and reduce clinical signs and issues.

Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty Research Presentation
A 50-year-old man underwent reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) to repair a failed shoulder hemiarthroplasty. He had a history of traumatic shoulder dislocation and multiple stabilization procedures. Following rTSA, he participated in a home-based rehabilitation program with minimal supervision. At 8 months post-op, he demonstrated significant improvements in range of motion, strength, function, and pain relief. Radiographs also showed the prosthesis was securely in place without issues. This case suggests rTSA may be a viable option for younger, highly active patients to improve outcomes following failed shoulder replacement.

The document discusses current thinking on the potential functional outcomes of reverse geometry total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA). While RTSA was originally considered a salvage procedure, some patients are now achieving a range of motion greater than 120 degrees. However, further research is still needed to investigate the biomechanical capabilities of RTSA under higher levels of activity and establish outcomes for younger patients or those achieving higher function. Rehabilitation also plays an important role in maximizing outcomes and minimizing risks like notching or dislocation.

I. SRS and SOSORT guidelines for treating AIS and Scheuermann kyphosis with braces based on Cobb angle and Risser sign.
II. A cross-sectional study of 167 patients treated with braces for AIS or kyphosis found an overtreatment rate of 42.5%, with 43.2% of AIS patients and 40.8% of kyphosis patients overtreated.
III. Possible reasons for high overtreatment rates include ignorance of treatment guidelines, overreliance on bracing without exercise, and lack of physician education in treating spinal deformities. Overtreatment can cause psychological, social, and financial problems for children.

This document summarizes the results of meniscus allograft transplantation (MAT) procedures performed by the author and colleagues on 38 patients over 5 years of follow up. Key findings include:
- Good short term outcomes in reducing pain and improving function based on clinical scores.
- Success depends on careful patient selection criteria like age, activity level, and degree of cartilage damage.
- Longer follow up is still needed to determine the biomechanical effects and ability of MAT to prevent cartilage degeneration over time.
- MAT is technically demanding but shows promise as an alternative to treat symptomatic knees with meniscus deficiency.
Adjacent Segment Disease CS v3
This study compared outcomes of 103 patients who received the Bryan artificial cervical disc replacement to 158 patients who received cervical fusion with the Affinity cervical cage system. Patients were examined at 24 months post-operation. The study found higher rates of new osteophyte formation, disc narrowing, and symptomatic adjacent segment disease in patients who received cervical fusion compared to those who received the artificial disc. Specifically, cervical fusion was associated with a 34.6% rate of new radiographic changes compared to 17.5% for artificial discs. The study concludes that preserving motion with an artificial disc may delay or prevent symptomatic adjacent segment disease compared to fusion.
Current concepts in the management of shoulder instability
This document discusses the current concepts in the management of shoulder instability. It covers the causes, classifications, investigations, and treatment options for shoulder instability. For treatment, it emphasizes the importance of a systematic approach that considers the patient's age, activity level, and nature of the soft tissue and bony injuries. Non-operative treatments include physiotherapy, while operative options depend on the specific injuries and may include arthroscopic bankart repair, open latarjet procedure, remplissage, or capsular shift procedures. The goal of treatment and rehabilitation is to return the patient to their prior level of function and activity.
Guided Growth for Angular Knee Deformities in Nutritional Rickets Children
Nutritional rickets in children is a global health concern. It manifests in generalized skeletal deformities including angular or coronal plane knee deformities. Guided growth surgery is a recognized treatment option for angular knee deformities in general. However, there is insufficient citations on its use in the treatment of angular knee deformities in children with nutritional rickets. Rachitic lower limb deformities can be complex. They are usually multiostotic, multiapex and multiplane and require extensive corrective osteotomies. However osteotomies are fraught with complications and can be technically demanding. In this presentation we present our experience with the use of surgical guided growth as a minimally invasive treatment option to correct angular knee deformities in children with nutritional rickets.
Labral injuries and traumatic instability
The document discusses labral injuries of the shoulder. It describes the anatomy of the labrum and its attachments in the shoulder joint. Common types of labral injuries are described including variants such as Bankart lesions, SLAP tears, and HAGL lesions. The evaluation, diagnosis, and management of labral injuries are covered. Key factors in decision making for treatment include the patient's history and factors, the pathology identified, and clinician experience. Surgical repair of labral injuries involves preparing the area, reattaching the labrum, and testing the stability of the repaired shoulder joint. Outcomes depend on thorough assessment and individualized treatment that considers the patient, surgeon, and therapist factors.

Relationship between extrinsic factors and the acromio humeral distance (1)
This study investigated the relationship between various extrinsic factors and acromio-humeral distance (AHD) in male control and elite athlete shoulders. Measurements were taken of scapular rotation, shoulder range of motion, pectoralis minor length, thoracic curve, and AHD in neutral and 60° abduction. Correlations between the factors and AHD were determined, with some significant but weak relationships found. Multiple linear regression showed that combinations of factors accounted for up to 36% of the variance in AHD. The study supports that extrinsic factors influence AHD in a multi-factorial and population-specific manner.
A Brief History of Scoliosis Treatment
The document provides a history of scoliosis treatment. It notes that Hippocrates first described scoliosis in 400 BC and the first metal brace was developed in 1575. Currently, physicians will monitor small curvatures but may prescribe bracing at 25 degrees to prevent progression, with spinal fusion recommended for more severe curvatures. However, bracing is not always effective and fusion does not always provide a cure, as many patients require additional surgeries. New rehabilitation approaches are being explored as alternatives to bracing and surgery.

Shoulder instability
This document discusses shoulder instability. It defines instability as the inability to maintain the humeral head in the glenoid fossa, and describes different types including dislocation, subluxation, and laxity. Static factors like bony anatomy and dynamic factors like muscles contribute to stability. The glenoid fossa has a pear shape with retroversion and tilt. Classification systems for instability are mentioned. Surgical procedures to address instability and lesions are briefly outlined. Multi-directional instability is also referenced.
The Adolescent Hip
This presentation explores the adolescent hip, reviewing some key pathologies and rehabilitation considerations.
Latarjet – the panacea for traumatic anterior shoulder
The Latarjet procedure is effective for treating traumatic anterior shoulder instability, especially when there is significant bone loss. It works by increasing the effective glenoid track and addressing humeral and glenoid bone deficits. Studies show the Latarjet procedure results in excellent stability, range of motion, function, and return to sports. While it has a slightly higher risk of complications than the Bankart repair, the Latarjet procedure is superior in addressing the underlying bone pathology and has lower recurrence rates, making it the preferred option for many patients with traumatic anterior instability.

Calcaneal Lengthening Using Bone Substitute Graft for Neurological Flatfoot Treatment by Mario Lampropulos* in Crimson Publishers: Orthopedic Research and Reviews JournalPost instability walton
This document discusses the arthroscopic management of posterior shoulder instability. It finds that posterior instability is more common than traditionally estimated, occurring in 17-35% of shoulder stabilization surgeries especially among contact athletes like rugby players. Posterior instability often presents with anterior instability symptoms, weakness, or cuff pain. Assessment involves special tests like the modified O'Brien's test. MR arthrogram can diagnose isolated anterior or posterior labral tears but has lower accuracy for combined lesions. Key steps of arthroscopic management include utilizing proper portal placement and angles, addressing reverse Hill-Sachs lesions, and specialized post-op rehabilitation involving the kinetic chain and rotator cuff. Bone loss increases risk of failure so it must also be addressed.
Reversing the Trend- Newer Types of Shoulder Replacement
Recently, there has been much discussion about a relatively new type of shoulder replacement, which offers patients the prospects of pain relief and better shoulder function. View this presentation to learn more about this shoulder replacement surgery.
Femoroactabular impingement
This document summarizes current concepts regarding femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). It discusses how both arthroscopic and open surgery for FAI can effectively relieve hip pain and correct the underlying bone deformity. It notes that 75-90% of athletes can return to their pre-injury level of sports after surgery. The document outlines how cam-type lesions (loss of femoral head-neck offset) and pincer-type lesions (acetabular overcoverage) can each cause FAI through repetitive impact. Early intervention prior to cartilage damage is important for surgical success. A thorough preoperative evaluation of the anatomy is critical to properly plan treatment.
Bone defects thessal2010
This document discusses treatment options for bone defects in the glenoid and humeral head that can cause recurrent shoulder instability. It finds that humeral head (Hill-Sachs) defects occur in 65-93% of cases depending on the number of dislocations, while glenoid defects occur in 5-56% of cases. Treatment depends on the size and engagement of the defects. For large Hill-Sachs lesions, options include bone grafting, arthroplasty, or the remplissage procedure. For significant glenoid bone loss over 20-30%, options include soft tissue repair plus bone grafting or procedures like Bristow or Latarjet to add bone to the glenoid. The document advocates

This study examined the relationship between cam-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and markers of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women. Fifteen women with cam FAI had significantly higher alpha angles and antral follicle counts per ovary compared to thirteen controls, indicating an association between cam FAI and hyperandrogenism. Further research is needed to understand the hormonal influences on proximal femoral development during adolescence.
Spinal balance
This document discusses spinal balance and sagittal alignment. It begins by introducing adult spinal deformity and how positive sagittal imbalance can cause pain and disability. It then covers evaluating spinal alignment through radiographs, including parameters like thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis, pelvic tilt, and sagittal vertical axis. Surgical treatment is discussed for correcting deformities, including different types of osteotomies. Maintaining proper sagittal balance and alignment is important for minimizing energy expenditure and improving quality of life.
Evidence Based Medicine on the Physiotherapeutic Scoliosis Specific Exercises
This presentation provides evidence on the effect of physiotherapeutic scoliosis specific exercises on scoliosis outcomes that is coming from methodologically stronger studies.
Atraumatic Shoulder Instability Principles and Assessment
The document discusses atraumatic shoulder instability, providing 4 scenarios of 16-year-old girls with unstable shoulders. It describes how to differentiate instability from hyperlaxity and covers the static and dynamic stabilizers of the shoulder. The clinical assessment of atraumatic instability includes assessing contributions from the traumatic history, structural factors like the sulcus sign, and range of motion tests like the Gagey sign. Classification systems for instability including Rockwood and Stanmore are presented.
Total Knee Replacement
This document discusses the evolution and design of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). It describes how early TKA designs in the 1970s-1980s led to improved designs that better replicated normal knee biomechanics. The key developments included posterior cruciate ligament retaining versus substituting designs, improved patellofemoral tracking, and converting flexion-extension gaps. The document outlines the surgical technique for TKA, including approaches, bone cuts, ligament balancing, and the goals of restoring alignment and stability while maximizing range of motion.

Braces scoliosis
Thoracolumbar braces are commonly used to treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. While braces aim to control curve progression through applied forces over time, their effectiveness is disputed due to inconsistent patient populations and evaluation methods across studies. Ideal candidates are those with curves between 30-40 degrees or less than 30 degrees who are at high risk of progression. Studies found braces successful in preventing progression over 6 degrees in right thoracic curves 25-35 degrees. However, wrong indications or inadequate forces can lead to treatment failure. Further research on brace biomechanics aims to better understand correction effects and pressure distributions to optimize brace design and prescription.

Occlusion
This document discusses occlusion in operative dentistry. It defines key occlusion concepts like centric relation, centric occlusion, and mandibular movements. It describes the temporomandibular joint, masticatory muscles, and occlusal schemes like balanced occlusion and canine protected occlusion. It discusses determining centric relation, occlusal contacts, and factors that influence occlusion like contours and marginal ridges. Maintaining a stable, functional occlusion is important for oral health.
The occlusal rims and record
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Jaw relation
1. Classification of jaw relations establishes orientation, vertical, and horizontal relations between the jaws. Orientation defines cranial references, vertical defines jaw separation, and horizontal defines front-back and side-to-side jaw positions.
2. Centric relation is a repeatable reference position important for recording jaw relations and developing occlusion. It is the starting point for mandibular movements and where opposing teeth contact without proprioceptive guidance.
3. Methods for recording centric relation include interocclusal records, graphic tracings, and functional methods to position the mandible at the correct vertical dimension. The record must be made with equal pressure and avoid distortion until casts are mounted.

Adult Hip Dysplasia Presentation
Hip dysplasia occurs when the ball and socket of the hip joint are misaligned, causing discomfort and pain. It can develop during childhood or adolescence. Treatment options range from physical therapy and medications for mild cases to surgical procedures like hip arthroscopy or osteotomy to realign the socket for more severe cases. The goal is to keep the ball centered in the socket to reduce friction and risk of further damage leading to osteoarthritis.
Active self correction of back posture
This study examined the active self-correction of spinal curvatures in 249 children (136 females, 113 males aged 10-14 years) in response to the command "straighten your back". Spinal angles were measured in standing and sitting positions both spontaneously and after the command. In standing, the command significantly increased sacral slope and decreased lumbar lordosis, thoracic kyphosis, and lower and upper thoracic kyphosis. In sitting, the command significantly changed sacral slope and lumbar lordosis from kyphotic to lordotic and significantly reduced thoracic kyphosis and flattened lower thoracic kyphosis. There were some gender differences in self-correction of lumbar lordosis and upper thoracic kyphosis
WHAT’S NEW IN NONSURGICAL SCOLIOSIS TREATMENT?
If you or a loved one have been diagnosed with scoliosis you may be wondering what new treatments are out there to address it.
Scoliosis Presentation
Idiopathic scoliosis is a condition that causes the spine to curve to the side. While the cause of scoliosis is unknown, it usually runs in families and typically affects girls and young women more often and severely than boys and young men. Mild cases that do not cause pain or discomfort require no treatment. However, cases that are moderate to severe and with or without pain or discomfort require treatment which is determined on a case by case basis.

SCOLIOSIS - Presentation on SCOLIOSIS .doc
Scoliosis is where the spine twists and curves to the side.
It can affect people of any age, from babies to adults, but most often starts in children aged 10 to 15. Scoliosis can improve with treatment, but it is not usually a sign of anything serious and treatment is not always needed if it's mild.

Good posture is difficult to define but generally refers to the alignment of body parts supported by the right amount of muscle tension. Proper posture keeps all body parts balanced and supported. Some key aspects of proper posture include maintaining the spine's natural curves, having the head held straight and shoulders level, and allowing for a straight line from ear to shoulder to hip to ankle. Poor posture can cause health issues by placing strain on joints and muscles.
Control motor
Three levels of motor control in the central nervous system can be distinguished in human development. In neonates, general movements and primitive reflexes are controlled at the spinal and brainstem levels. Analysis of these in newborns allows for early screening and recognition of abnormal development risk. From birth to one year, motor control emerges at the subcortical level, enabling basic trunk stabilization and postural control. Cortical motor control develops last, allowing for isolated and refined movement. Assessment of motor skills, reflexes, and posture at different developmental levels can aid in diagnosing and treating motor system dysfunction.

Spondylisthesis by dr venkata rama krishnaiah vapms cop
Spondylolisthesis is the slippage of one vertebra over another. It is classified into six types based on cause, including dysplastic (congenital), isthmic, degenerative, traumatic, pathological, and iatrogenic. Isthmic spondylolisthesis is most common, typically occurring at L5-S1, and is often caused by a stress fracture of the pars interarticularis. Diagnosis involves x-rays and sometimes CT or MRI. Treatment includes rest, medications, bracing, physical therapy, and sometimes surgery to stabilize and fuse the vertebrae. Physical therapy focuses on core strengthening, stretching, and exercises to improve mobility and reduce pain.
Unlocking the black box posture & pain
The document discusses unlocking the 'black box' of posture and pain by examining the scientific evidence. It makes 5 key points:
1) There is no consensus on what constitutes "good" posture. Studies show physiotherapists disagree on the best spinal posture.
2) Keeping the lumbar spine neutral while lifting is impossible, as the spine will flex no matter the lifting technique.
3) Squat lifting does not prevent back pain, and stoop lifting is not necessarily dangerous. Flexed spinal postures may be more efficient for lifting.
4) Individual posture varies due to genetic, physical, lifestyle and other factors. One should not expect all postures to be the same.

Assessment of the Muscle Strength and Range of
Motion Ankle in Boys With and Without Flatfoot by Kasbparast Mehdi in Research & Investigations in Sports MedicineOperative hip arthroscopy
The key points of patient selection for hip arthroscopy are proper imaging or clinical findings of an intra-articular problem, reasonable expectations of what the procedure can accomplish, and examination of the entire hip region to rule out other potential causes of pain. A thorough history and physical exam are important to establish an accurate diagnosis and differential. Factors like mechanism of injury, symptoms, age, and activities can provide clues to the underlying pathology.
Jospt.1998.27.4
The document presents five case reports that required referral from a physical therapist to a physician or specialist due to abnormal screening test results during differential diagnosis of hip versus lumbar spine pathology. Each case resulted in a new diagnosis beyond the scope of physical therapy, such as fracture or osteonecrosis of the hip. Cyriax's concepts of capsular and noncapsular patterns of joint restriction and the "Sign of the Buttock" were useful in differentiating hip from lumbar spine pathology in each patient. The clinical experience suggests these screening tests may effectively identify hip pathology, but further research is needed.

www.indiandentalacademy.comHip impingement fai
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a hip condition caused by a mechanical mismatch between the femoral head and acetabulum. There are three types of FAI - cam, pincer, and mixed - which describe deformities of the femoral head or acetabulum that can cause pain and restricted movement. FAI is typically diagnosed based on symptoms like groin pain worsened by activity, and imaging tests may confirm deformities. Treatment starts with rest, modifications to activity, and physical therapy, while surgery can reshape bone structures for severe cases or when other options provide no relief.
Conservative treatment of scoliosis
This document discusses conservative treatment options for scoliosis. Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine, while kyphosis is excessive curvature in the sagittal plane. Conservative treatments aim to stop progression, prevent respiratory issues, and improve aesthetics. Options include observation, bracing, and physical therapy techniques like the FITS method, which involves myofascial release, strengthening, and teaching correct posture. Bracing is recommended for curves between 25-35 degrees in females to prevent worsening. The FITS method focuses on three-dimensional correction through functional exercises and awareness of proper alignment.
Avascular Necrosis of the Hip
Avascular necrosis (AVN) or Aseptic Necrosis of the hip is caused by a disruption to the hip’s blood supply which results in the deterioration and often collapse of the ball of the thigh bone (femoral head). Early identification and treatment of the condition increases the likelihood that a patient’s hip will recover. Surgery may be required in severe cases to repair or revascularize (restore circulation) the hip or to replace the hip in neglected/end stage cases.

Sports Dentistry
The document discusses occlusion and how it can cause either eustress or distress depending on mechanical and physiological factors. It then discusses how sports dentistry and properly designed mouthguards can enhance athletic performance by supporting the jaws and teeth. This allows for improvements in balance, agility, strength, power and endurance. The Template is then introduced as a tool based on Guzay's Quadrant Theorem that provides various benefits like improved motor skills, strength, reflexes, and TMJ issues as well as enhancing physical abilities like grip strength, back strength, vertical jump and reaction time.
Sports Dentistry
This document discusses sports dentistry and the importance of mouth guards for preventing injuries to teeth and jaws for athletes. It recommends that every team have an official team dentist to oversee a mouth guard program and fit each player with a custom-made mouth guard. Custom-made mouth guards are preferred by players over stock or mouth-formed types. The duties of the team dentist are to examine players' teeth, take impressions to make custom mouth guards, fit the mouth guards, and educate players and coaches on their benefits for reducing injuries.
Fw Snoring
Snoring occurs as throat muscles relax during sleep, allowing tissues like the tongue and palate to vibrate and narrow the airway. More than one third of adults snore, which can disrupt sleep and strain relationships. Snoring is often due to inherited anatomical features that allow throat structures to relax and block the airway during breathing. Persistent loud snoring may indicate sleep apnea, a potentially serious condition where breathing stops for ten seconds or more. Self-help strategies include losing weight, sleeping on the side, using nasal strips, and limiting sedatives before bed. A doctor can recommend oral appliances, CPAP machines, or surgery to increase airflow if self-help does not work.
Fw Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a serious medical condition where the airway becomes blocked during sleep, preventing oxygen from reaching the lungs for 10 seconds or more. It is associated with increased risks of heart problems, stroke, high blood pressure, and diabetes. OSA is caused when the muscles in the back of the throat relax and block the airway during sleep. It can be mild, moderate, or severe depending on how many times per hour the airway becomes blocked. Treatment options include devices that hold the lower jaw forward during sleep to open the airway, as well as CPAP machines and surgery.
Template Therapy 2
This document reports on animal experiments testing template therapy, which originated in the US based on Guzay's Quadrant Theorem. Experiments on rats, guinea pigs, beagle dogs, and rhesus monkeys found that grinding teeth and placing templates improved muscle tension, hair growth, and posture over time without fractures. The therapy works by stabilizing brain activity and reducing output signals to the masticatory muscles.
Template Therapy
Template therapy involves wearing a custom-fitted mouthpiece that stretches the muscles of mastication and stabilizes head and jaw position. The document summarizes clinical findings showing that template therapy improved various symptoms and conditions, including posture, cervical spine issues, pain, blood flow, autonomic function, immune function, motor skills, TMJ disorders, sleep apnea, and more. A questionnaire of 1000 patients found that most experienced improvement within weeks or 3 months of using the template, with few reporting no change or worsening of symptoms.
Stabilization of TMD thru Twin Block Therapy
The document discusses the stabilization of occlusion and template therapy through the use of twin blocks and straight wire appliances. It describes the phases of twin block therapy and how it can be used to correct malocclusion by positioning the lower jaw forward. The twin block holds the corrected bite position until teeth erupt and stabilize. It notes twin block therapy may also be used to treat temporomandibular joint problems and facial pain.
Template Therapy for Non-Specific Complaints
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against developing mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.

This document summarizes a conference held in Fukuoka, Japan to honor the memory and legacy of Dr. John Stenger in the field of template therapy and sports dentistry. It describes three generations of dentists from the United States who advanced the field: Dr. Carl Storberg from 1915 in Duluth, Minnesota, Dr. John Stenger from 1945 in South Bend, Indiana, and Dr. David Burns from 1975 in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The document provides biographical details about each dentist and their contributions to template therapy.
Diabetes
Dr. Robert Rizza was interviewed about diabetes. He defined diabetes as a disease where blood sugar levels are higher than normal. There are two main types of diabetes: type 1 where the body destroys insulin-producing cells, and type 2 where the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or the body does not respond properly to insulin. Screening for diabetes is recommended starting at age 45 through fasting blood sugar tests or glucose tolerance tests. Treatments include lifestyle changes like diet and exercise as well as medications to increase insulin production, reduce glucose production, or improve insulin function. New treatments still in development include some being studied at Mayo Clinic.
Burns Tmj Pdf
This document outlines the agenda for the American Association of Orthopedic Medicine workshop on Pain Management and Healing in the 21st Century. The workshop will feature presentations on topics such as dental occlusion and health, how occlusion can impact stress levels, animal research on occlusion, clinical cases demonstrating the effects of occlusion, and the use of templates or mouthpieces in treating conditions like sleep apnea. Presenters will discuss how occlusion can mechanically and physiologically influence posture, physiology, and dynamic body functions. The template therapy aims to stabilize the brain and reduce overactivity of the masticatory muscles by providing low-level stimulation to key areas in the brainstem.

Posture
- 1. POSTURE AND YOUR BITE drdlburns@comcast.net www.davidlburnsdds.com 260-432-8596 For many years dental research has studied the relation of posture to the individuals bite. A clinical diagnosis of whether the unique bite of each person is normal or abnormal is currently impossible. Dentistry has no standard that is agreed upon to evaluate the patient’s bite condition as normal
- 2. POSTURE AND YOUR BITE or abnormal. However if one focuses on the fact the occlusal plane and the unique posture of each person are correlated, it becomes clear that observation of posture is probably an objective indicator of the bite state. Each person’s unique bite is a plane determined by the Y- axis of the trunk of the body and position of the head. This concept is defined as ideal occlusion, which is geometrically
- 3. POSTURE AND YOUR BITE expressed in Figure 1 series 5 ( C.M. Guzay 1977 ). . If the bite is overclosed for some reason, the bite surpasses the X- axis plane and takes place above the X-axis.This clarifies the fact that the bite forces acts at this time on the A- teeth, B-temporomandibular joint and C- cervical vertebrae and becomes a latent cause for temporomandibular joint disease and cervical problems. This condition is defined as being
- 4. POSTURE AND YOUR BITE in a state of pathological occlusion which is geometrically expressed in Figure 1 series 6. This is where moire topography comes into practice. The posture photo is taken to evaluate each individual’s Y-axis of the trunk of their body and position of their head. If the posture is correct we can project the objective indicator of the bite is normal as discussed earlier in ideal occlusion. If on the other hand the posture is not correct we can define the bite as abnormal. The treatment for abnormal occlusion or posture imbalances
- 5. POSTURE AND YOUR BITE involves a bite elevation device called a template(splint). The template is balanced for each patient over time until the posture is corrected and clinical signs reduced. The clinical results of template insertion are correction of improper posture, analgesic effect including headache relief,correction of the arrangement of cervical vertebrae, improvement of cerebrovascular circulation, correction of TMD and improvement in athletics by increasing motor ability such as muscle strength level and athletic performance and decreasing concussions especially in contact sports. In conclusion, we are able to evaluate our patient’s bite through a moire topograghical picture and base our treatment on the results. We are now able to help many postural concerns by understanding the close relationship between the axis of the trunk of the body and position of the head.
