T Scan – An aid in achieving stable occlusion during finishing stages of orthodontic treatment

ConclusionsEvaluation of the number and distribution of occlusal contacts at the end of active orthodontic treatment has not been a routine procedure in orthodontic clinics. 2 months of extensive finishing and detailing phase resulted in marked improvement in all three parameters and favorable changes in occlusion. Hence, evaluation of occlusion using T Scan is an innovative and objective method, emphasizing that proper finishing is mandatory for obtaining functionally stable occlusion.
