The research aimed for the precise and quantitative assessment of occlusal bite force, along with the recording of electromyographic activity of muscles of mastication with a newly designed bite force recorder. An association between bite force , occlusal wear and various malocclusions has been demonstrated. Future studies of similar nature exploring association of bite force on etiology of malocclusion and its influence on orthodontic treatment are warranted.

While orthodontic treatment affects all three dimensions, many of the current tools of diagnosis employ only a two dimensional (2D) representation of the patient. The development of integrated 3-D tools has helped to interpolate the 3-D data and visualize a 3-dimensional problem 3-dimensionally and treat accordingly. Highly sophisticated technologies from the fields of digital imaging, computer graphics, robotics, computational analysis and database management are cruising their way into the specialty. With treatment records always at the orthodontist's finger tips, orthodontic treatment has...
