Abstract: Occlusal analysis is a valuable tool for alleviating a patient’s pain emanating from temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) and enabling lasting dental function. Modern-day dental occlusion technology is expanding and includes innovative devices and methods such as joint vibration analysis, digital articulating paper, digital articulators, digital jaw tracking, intraoral scanning, and others that are on the cutting edge of dental science. These state-of-the-art techniques provide insights and data-driven results that can offer clinicians a more complete picture of a patient’s temporomandibular joint and how it contributes to TMDs.
