Occlusal Curve

Occlusal curves are the lines that pass through the points where the teeth meet each other. They are used in dentistry to determine the shape and size of teeth and to determine the position of the jaws in relation to each other.

Occlusal curves can vary depending on the type of teeth and their location. For example, canines and incisors have occlusal curves that run down the center of the tooth. In premolars and molars, the occlusal curves run along the edge of the tooth.

Determining occlusal curves is important for creating the correct tooth shape and for determining the optimal position of the jaws when installing dentures. It also helps dentists determine what dental problems may be occurring and how they can be corrected.

Overall, occlusal curves are an important tool in dentistry and help dentists create ideal teeth and jaws for their patients.

An occlusal curve is a curve that passes through the centers of the formative trajectories of movement of the lower jaw during its movement to the upper jaw. In its shape, the occlusal curve is not a geometric body of rotation, and therefore it cannot be described by a flat curve, since the occlusal surface unfolds in space. Determining the shape of the occlusal curve is not included in
