Restoration method of original occlusal vertical distance in edentulous jaw / 口腔疾病防治

ABSTRACT

@#The loss of jaw position relationship will seriously affect the face and masticatory function of patients, and accurate restoration of vertical dimension of occlusion (OVD) is the key to occlusal reconstruction in edentulous patients. There are many methods to measure OVD in edentulous patients. In this paper, the working principle, scope of application, advantages and disadvantages, measurement methods and operation points of OVD recording method are reviewed in order to provide some reference for clinical treatment. The results show that the pre- extraction recording method is more objective and accurate, but the diagnosis model before extraction is required to accurately reflect the patients′ original OVD; the rest and stop jaw reference method is easily affected by subjective factors, and the edentulous patients with unstable jaw relationship are forbidden; the swallowing method is more subjective, especially suitable for patients with emotional tension and poor coordination; The facial landmark measurement method is more objective, but it is also affected by some subjective measurement factors. The patients with maxillofacial malformation are forbidden; the subjectivity of speech method is strong, and the accuracy of measurement results is closely related to the clinical experience of doctors, and the patients with aphasia and deafness are forbidden. X-ray cephalometric method and finger measurement method have strong objectivity. They are new measurement methods in recent years and have a bright future. Among them, finger measurement method is especially suitable for patients with maxillofacial deformity or postoperative deformity of tumor.
