Quantitative Analysis of Occlusal Balance in Intercuspal Position Using the T-Scan System

The T-Scan system was used to evaluate the distribution of time and force in occlusal balance. Sixty normal subjects demonstrated bilateral balance and an anteroposterior center of force in the first molar region. However, patients with craniomandibular disorders demonstrated marked differences from the control group. The T-Scan system was found to be clinically useful as a diagnostic screening method for occlusal stability in intercuspal position.
