last 6 months– Reports Previous History of Acid Reflux (pt has a very

hoarse voice)– After Stomach Surgery, no longer has reflux– NKDA

Dental History• Missing: 1, 16, 17,19,32• Existing Restorations:

– Amalgams: #2 OL, #4 DO, #12 O#15OL, #18 O, #31 MO (with composite)– Ceramic Onlay: #3 MOL, #20 MOD– Ceramic Crown: #30– RCT: #30, #10– Recent RCT #30 and ceramic crown, after bite adjustment, pt stated LR area felt much better– Possible Root FX distal #30, did not probe deep, though 6 mm pocket– Facial Composite #10

Periodontal- Diagnostic Opinion

• Attachment Loss/Chronic Periodontitis- AAP II Mild

• Site Specific -#30 Distal

• Missing Teeth #19

• Recession• Risk - Low to

Moderate Prognosis-Fair

• Treatment-Scaling and Root Planing, PerioMaintenance, Watch #30 D

• Pt reported previous dentist said #30 had a crack so tooth was crowned

Biomechanical – Diagnostic Opinion

• Questionable Restorations -#31 MO• Erosion –dentin exposed #7-#10, #22-#27–

History of acid reflux• Missing Teeth - #19• Recurrent Decay #10 Facial• Risk – Moderate• Prognosis-Fair• Treatment – control caries, MI paste, ceramic onlay

#31 MO to replace questionable restoration (amalgam/composite)

Bite and Jaw Joint Questions• Any problems chewing gum? NO• Any Problems Eating Bagels? NO• Teeth changed last 5 Yrs, become shorter, thinner, worn?

YES• Are your Teeth Crowding or Developing Spaces? YES• Do you have more than one bite or do you clench

(squeeze) to make your teeth fit together? YES• Do you have any problems with sleep or wake up with an

awareness of your teeth? YES• Do you have problems with your jaw joint? (pain, sounds,

limited opening, locking, popping) NO• Do you have tension headaches or sore teeth? YES• Do you wear or have ever worn a bite appliance? NO

Functional – diagnostic opinion

• Any Yes answer to questions rules out Acceptable function

• Patient Findings– Abnormal attrition – moderate– Excessive force – large masseters– Missing Teeth - #30– No systemic medications that can contribute

to Neurologic Disorder


• Consider Constricted Envelope or OcclusalDysfunction– Constricted Envelope

• Tender Joints/TMD (Patient Answered NO to Joint Question)• Tired muscles when speaking a lot• Tired muscles with difficulty in nasal breathing• Absence of wear on posterior teeth• Typical Wear pattern –lingual maxillary anterior teeth and facial mandibular

anterior teeth (Not observed in Patient)• Mobility anterior teeth• No mobility posterior teeth (clinical finding in patient)• Open spaces Anterior teeth• Fast Chewing –fewer cycles

– Note: Anterior initial contact –following deprogramming– Key – there is a greater discrepancy in the orthopedic position of the

lower jaw when the patient bites on the deprogrammer between laying back and sitting up


• Consider Constricted Envelope of Function or Occlusal Dysfunction– Occlusal Dysfunction

• Muscle Hypertrophy (knots) –Inefficient system• Masticatory muscle fatigue (Pt answered Yes to tension headaches

sore teeth)• Generalized wear facets (A Patient Finding)• Wear on Incisal Edges, maxillary and mandibular teeth (Patient Finding)• Generalized mobility pattern• Avoidance of chewing certain foods• TMD with distalizing vectors• Unilateral muscle symptoms more common

– Note: Posterior Initial Contact following deprograming

• More than one bite (Pt. answered Yes to this question)

Functional – KOIS DEPROGRAMMERfrom Jayne, Don DDS. A Deprogrammer for Occlusal Analysis and Simplified Accurate Case Mounting. The Journal of Cosmetic Dentistry. Vol 21 Number 4. Winter 2006.

• Can be used as diagnostic tool if the mandible needs to move in anterior or posterior direction to reach CR from MIP

• KD protocol breaks discoordination cycle by discluding teeth and allows muscles to return to normal function. Also verifies muscles of mastication are deprogrammed. This ensures that condyles are allowed to “move” to CR position, being unaffected by uncoordinated muscles, tooth interferences, or operator error.

• Also used to differentiate between:

– 1. CCP-constricted chewing pattern- pt. will not grind on KD since etiology of grinding has been removed once

pt. is deprogrammed Difficult to treat

– 2. Occlusal Dysfunction Will not grind on KD Removed interferences

– 3. Parafunction (bruxism) Will see wear facet on anterior platform of KD Managed with nightguard

Kois Deprogrammer worn for 3 weeks• Pt report- found himself initially trying to clench on

anterior teeth, then resolved • Reports sleeping better, waking up feeling more

relaxed• During bite adjustment- posterior initial

contact between - #2 and #31 hit first

Functional Occlusion -Goals• Restore in CR

– Objective -Reference/Starting Point– All movements and terminal closure must be compatible with

harmonious TMJ function

• Achieve bilateral simultaneous contact with equal intensity – focus on premolars and 1st Molars– Objective – Vertical Support/Posterior teeth or anterior platform– MIP that the brain can find– MIP that is precise (no slide)

• Flatter cusps for guidance– Objective – Minimize Friction and Load; Avoid Chewing

Interferences– Envelope of function that creates an efficient use of closing and

opening movements (muscles)– Envelope of function that does NOT create premature loading of

teeth (wear, mobility and TMD)

Occlusal Adjustment in CR• Bilateral simultaneous contact with premolars

with equal intensity (shimstock) – pt reports bite feels comfortable – Posterior teeth hold shimstock– Anterior teeth do not hold shimstock– Pt sitting upright– Pt reports 1 week post op bite feels good

• All posterior teeth including cuspidshould have at least one small contact point- these should hold Shimstock

• Bite should sound crisp when pt. closes on teeth

• Should be no lateral marks or streaks on any posterior teeth –or incisors, only cuspids

• Incisors should never hold Shimstock in MIP or CO –Ever

• Pt. sitting upright
