Course overview
A well-designed occlusion for an implant-supported prosthesis minimizes stresses on implants, preserves marginal bone and soft tissues, and prevents implant and prosthetic failure. Unlike natural teeth, implants lack a periodontal ligament, requiring specific occlusal modifications to ensure long-term success. Occlusion is fundamental to prosthodontic rehabilitation, influencing not only the oral structures but also the overall health. Occlusal disharmonies can impact the temporomandibular joints, muscles of mastication, and even systemic health.
