Physiological bite

The physiological occlusion, also known as the normal occlusion, is the natural arrangement of the teeth in the upper and lower jaws that allows for optimal functioning of the maxillofacial system.

In general, physiological occlusion involves the upper teeth partially overlapping the lower teeth, with the upper incisors in front of the lower incisors and the maxillary lateral teeth in front of the mandibular lateral teeth.

This position of the teeth ensures uniform distribution of pressure during chewing and speaking, as well as ease of breathing and swallowing. It should be noted that the physiological occlusion may vary slightly from person to person, but in general it is the standard for a healthy occlusion.

However, in some cases, the physiological occlusion may be disrupted, which can lead to various problems. For example, an incorrect bite can lead to problems with chewing, speaking, breathing, and even cause tooth and gum disease.

In such cases, professional treatment by a dentist is necessary, who will help restore the physiological bite or correct it to an optimal state.

Thus, physiological occlusion is an important element of dental and maxillofacial health. Regular visits to the dentist and proper dental care will help maintain a healthy bite and avoid problems with the health of your teeth and gums.

Physiological occlusion is a condition when the teeth are located in the correct position and relationship to each other, which ensures the proper functioning of the jaw apparatus and oral health.

With a physiological occlusion, all teeth are in the correct location and relationship with each other. The teeth of the upper jaw are located above the lower teeth, and the incisors of the upper jaw occupy a vertical position.

It is important to note that physiological occlusion can change with age and under the influence of various factors such as malocclusion, trauma, infection, etc. Therefore, if you have doubts about the correctness of your bite, it is recommended to consult a dentist for consultation and diagnosis.

The correct bite shape ensures the normal functioning of the jaw system and contributes to the proper functioning of the masticatory muscles. In addition, with a physiological occlusion, the teeth are not subjected to excessive pressure and do not cause discomfort or pain.

If you have an incorrect bite or other dental problems, it is recommended that you seek help from a dentist. He will be able to diagnose and offer the optimal solution for correcting the bite.
