Opis

Occlusal trauma can be classified as primary or secondary. In its generalized form, occlusal trauma is characterized by severe attrition, exposed dentin, sensitive teeth, and tooth mobility. Common features of secondary occlusal trauma include drifting and tipping of the teeth in addition to marked mobility. The maxillary anterior teeth are particularly susceptible to labial flaring and often exhibit obvious fremitus when the teeth are occluded. In some cases, the symptoms may be relieved by a comprehensive occlusal adjustment, which should follow rather than precede initial periodontal therapy. In severe cases in which the teeth have drifted or exhibited moderate to severe mobility, provisional splinting may be required. This book presents all literature review and treatment plan in relation to traumatic occlusion.
