Abstract
To ensure the long term stability and a successful dental treatment, the dentist should establish a stable dental occlusion. During diagnosis and establishing therapy plan, it is mandatory for the dentist and dental technician to understand the masticatory system as well as masticatory forces that will be applied on the final restorations. It is important to protect the integrity of the masticatory system, so dentists take the responsibility of establishing proper form and function in any restorative treatment. Dental occlusion plays an important role in not only function and patients acceptance of the treatment but also in final aesthetics. This presentation is to highlight the requirements for a stable dental occlusion, and how to reduce the complications after the restorative treatments.
