Lingualized occlusion in implant dentistry

J V Reitz. Quintessence Int. 1994 Mar.

Abstract

Occlusal requirements for implant prosthodontics, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of two occlusal schemes are discussed. Based on the requirements of fixed reconstruction, the concept of lingualized occlusion with anterior guidance is presented as an ideal occlusal scheme for many implant cases. It embodies the established requirements for fixed implant prosthesis, eases fabrication, and simplifies intraoral adjustment procedures.
