| Research Abstract |
Our previous studies indicated that the tooth vibration during palpation showed a growing amplitude around 200 Hz when the palpated tooth had some premature contact, and that the maximum amplitude of tooth vibration might be a new parameter for an objective occulusal evaluation when a suitable finger pressure (from 50 to 150 gr.) was applied. The purpose of this study was to confirm the reliability of the new parameter for occlusal evaluation. Five volunteers were used and each tooth vibration of their #11,21,13,23,14 and 24 teeth was measured during habitual closing movement of the mandible. Artificial premature contact to teeth #11,13 and 14 was simulated individually by a multiple-thickness platinum foil. But no artificial premature contact was given to teeth #21,23 and 24, which was measured for each control tooth #11,13 and 14. The accelerometer pick-ups were used to measure the tooth vibration with about 50 gr.finger pressure. FFT analysis was applied to each wave form of tooth vibration, and then the maximum amplitude and its peak frequency were calculated. The results were as follows : each vibration of the teeth given premature contact showed a significantly higher value in the maximum amplitude than the vibration of each control tooth (Student's t-Test, p<0.01) and also all of the peak frequencies were observed in the range of 150 to 750 Hz (Confidence Interval at the 99%).
Then we manufactured a new occlusal evaluation system using these results based upon tooth vibration during palpation
