Patients without any teeth, the bite changes over time and the placement of implants and teeth requires special skills and a lot of experience. Incorrect planning can lead to unpleasant side effects including migraine headaches.
As to determine the correct bite it must all start with a thorough examination by a specialist. Digitail images are made through a software, which creates visualisations. Then, together with the dental laboratory, an equipment is used, which records and pre-sets individual movements of the jaw on the patient – the so called facial arch and articulator with individual values and perimeters. This process allows the production of prosthetic structures with an anatomical shape as close as possible to that of natural teeth and prevents the occurrence of improper contacts between artificial and natural teeth (if any), which is one of the main causes of metal-ceramic and all-ceramic fracture constructions. This method of planning is used mainly in large bridge structures, but in some cases it is also used in the manufacture of crowns and removable prostheses. Making a preliminary wax modeling – the so-called wax-up, helps to plan and predict the aesthetic result of the new design.
The bite registration is a key step in a complete dental restoration and it is important to trust experienced professionals.
