Vertical dimension of occlusion related to mandibular movement during swallowing

Clinical indications for altering vertical dimension of occlusion. Objective vs subjective methods for determining vertical dimension of occlusion.

Cephalometric indicators of the vertical dimension of occlusion.

The aim of this investigation was to establish precise indicators of the vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) which could be used as objective parameters in prosthodontic treatment providing exact control of the reconstructed vertical dimension of occlusion, early detection of errors and correction of the vertical dimension of occlusion during complete denture manufacturing. A total of 60 late...

Effect of increased maxillo-mandibular relationship on isometric strength in TMD patients with loss of vertical dimension of occlusion.

The effect on isometric strength of the shoulders and limbs while biting in habitual occlusion, on a bite-elevating appliance and on a placebo appliance was analyzed. Twenty female volunteer patients, presenting with temporomandibular pain dysfunction syndrome and obvious loss of vertical dimension, served as subjects. All were weaker to the manual application of the isometric Deltoid Press (ID...

A new technique to determine vertical dimension of occlusion from anthropometric measurement of interpupillary distance

BACKGROUND A number of techniques are being practiced for the evaluation of VDO, but none of them is scientifically more accurate than other. Each method advocated has its own limitations. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to find correlation between vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) and interpupillary distance (IPD). MATERIAL AND METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted on ...
