METHOD FOR REPAIRING DENTAL ROW OCCLUSION SURFACE Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: medical engineering. SUBSTANCE: method involves applying abrasive wax on trapezoid recess formed on tooth occlusion surface and having 2 mm depth and divergence angle of 40-50 deg so that it overhangs above the recess edge by 1-2 mm. Abrasive wax is substituted with self-hardening plastic material after carrying out functional tests sequentially on every tooth. Then, occlusion relations are adjusted under X-ray control when repairing occlusion surface of one of functional groups of teeth. Wax substitution is carried out at the same time. EFFECT: improved accuracy of dental row occlusion surface correction. 2 cl
