Occlusal Plane Control and Orthodontic Occlusal Reconstruction
Occlusal plane forms as the dentition construction completed,which is closely related to the position of molars,jaw bone development,facial aesthetics and malocclusion type.It also plays a key role in orthodontic treatment,facial aesthetic evaluation,and orthognathic surgery,and is the basis of clinical treatment.Orthodontic treatment is considered as the generalized occlusal reconstruction treatment that aims to move teeth to a functionally and aesthetically appropriate position,however,the adjustment of partial or full dentition will change the original occlusal relationship,and the change of occlusal plane is one of the factors to be considered.The improvement of facial aesthetics by orthodontic treatment suggested that the growth guidance and control of the occlusal plane may be an important mechanism for the changes of soft tissue profile.Morever,changes in the occlusal plane may also involve the adjustment and redistribution of dental arch space,the coordination of mandibular functional movement,and orthodontic reconstruction and stabilization.So,it is meaningful to review the relationship between occlusal plane and occlusal reconstruction of orthodontic treatment.
