Abstrakt: In oral rehabilitation the new dental morphology requires changes in the occlusal relations and in case of whole dental arch restoration also the mandibular position can undergo three-dimensional spatial modifications. Overloads and/or altered distributions of the stresses on the temporomandibular joint, teeth and bones may therefore result with not clearly understood consequences. In the present case report a new tool -Vertical Tester- designed to manage the 3D vertical occlusion during an implant retained full mouth rehabilitation was combined with standardized surface electromyographic (ssEMG) analysis in order to respect the masticatory muscle symmetry and coordination. The Authors conclude that the standardized surface electromyography of the masticatory muscles coupled with custom made centric relation registration device is an easy to use procedure to reduce torsional strains on the oral hard structures.
