OccluSense is Sensor Based System Used as a Digital Method for Occlusal Contact Analysis, and Basically Used Without Any Support of Its Sensor. Therefore the Aim of This Study is to Clinically Evaluate the Validity of a Customizable Stabilizing Tray to Support OccluSense Sensor in.

Background: Occlusal contacts analysis is of prime importance in order to perform an effective prosthetic restoration. Quantitative methods for occlusal contact analysis involve using digital systems to measure and analyze occlusal contacts and forces with greater precision than traditional methods. One of these devices is the OccluSense which is sensor based system and basically used without any support of its sensor. Therefore the aim of this study is to clinically evaluate the validity of a customizable stabilizing tray to support the sensor of the OccluSense intraoral. A total of 22 healthy dental students, aged from 18-25 years, are recruited. Each participant will undergo two set of recordings; firstly by the OccluSense without centering tray then with the tray seated intraoral. Occlusal contacts were recorded under maximum bite force and Maximum Intercuspation Position (MIP).

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

intact arches, no missing teeth, and no TMD disorder.

Exclusion criteria

patients with less than 24 natural teeth, the presence of active orthodontic treatment, as it could interfere with the data acquisition process, the presence of fixed restorations, severe malocclusion, and those with orofacial pain.

Treatment and study plan

osscluSense with customized centering tray

Device

A customizable centering tray is a thermoplastic or 3D-printed tray designed to hold the OccluSense sensor straight and centered between arches

Primary outcomes

total number of occlusal contacts recorded by the device

Time frame: this study has unique characteristics. Each participant underwent two set of occlusal recordings with one week interval between the intervention and control toto minimize the risk of muscle fatigue. the outcomes were measured and analyzed instantly
total contact area and the Number of contact points

Time frame: two visits with one week interval
