Abstract
ROJAS PAREDES, Lourdes V. and GONZALEZ, Claudia Elena. Static and Dynamic Occlusal features of students of the dental occlusion Chair. Rev. cienc. tecnol. [online]. 2020, n.33, pp.1-10. ISSN 1851-7587.
This study aimed at determining the static and dynamic occlusal features among 41 healthy students, who were aged 18 and 21 respectively. They were undergoing the second year of the dentistry career at the Catholic University "Nuestra Señora de la Asunción" in Itapúa-Paraguay during 2017 and 2018. Complete upper and lower models were taken and mounted on a semi adjustable articulator. The most frequent arch shape for both arcades was ovoid. The results of the measurements of both Overbite and Overjet mainly had a tendency towards the normal parameters. The midline discrepancy is present in half of the students. Cross-bite cases are rare. The molar and canine class I is the most frequent. Canine Desocclusion was the most common pattern of functional lateral movement although low percentage interferences existed on the non-working side.
