How do We Treat Bad Bite (Occlusal Dysfunction)?

Functional Occlusal Therapy is to reconstruct your bite to function with decreased risks for deterioration of joint, teeth, and supporting structures

Persons with the following problems may need Crowns or Veneers made: 

  • Worn, chipped, or cracked front or back teeth.

  • Have chipped or broken crowns that have been recemented.

  • Difficulty chewing or chewing with only the back or front teeth.

  • Do not know proper alignment of how teeth should fit together.

  • Sore or tight jaw muscles.

Bite is Treated in the Following Sequence:

You will wear an appliance to find your jaw joint position for about one month.

  1. When this position is located, we will need to balance the bite, by lowering the high spot and adding to the low spot, so left and right side of the back teeth can touch at the same time with same intensity.
    This may require

    • Occlusal adjustment to lower the high spot

    • Add to the low spot,

      • ⇒Composite

      • ⇒Temporary crowns

  2. If possible, a Guide will the made in the front tooth area. This may require:

    • Occlusal adjustment

    • Occlusal Adjustment and Composite

    • Temporary Crown

Kois Deprogrammer to check the bite

No final restorations are made until patient feels the new bite acceptable. 
In order to try out the new bite, we will need to build the new bite with treatment provisionals. The time to complete the treatment will vary. 
It must be emphasized that longer the dysfunction, the more difficult to modify the old habits and old feedback that is already engrammed into the brain. Even the best possible reconstruction may not be totally comfortable, as the occlusion also depend on the ability of the patient to adapt to the new bite and turn off the abnormal jaw movement.

The bite treatment cannot be guaranteed as it depend also on the existing physical compromises patient has (joint, tooth position, tooth integrity, jaw bone, engram). To be realistic, some compromises may be required.
