What is Occlusal Therapy?

Occlusal Therapy, also known as occlusal adjustment or bite therapy, is a dental treatment aimed at optimising the alignment and contact between the upper and lower teeth. The therapy focuses on balancing the bite to enhance overall oral health and alleviate symptoms associated with bite irregularities. By carefully adjusting the surfaces of the teeth, Occlusal Therapy aims to achieve a harmonious bite relationship, reducing stress on the jaw joints and minimizing issues such as headaches, jaw pain, and discomfort while chewing. This specialised therapy at Westcliff Dental Practice in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, offers a targeted solution for those seeking improved bite function and enhanced overall well-being.

The process of Occlusal Therapy

The process of Occlusal Therapy involves a systematic and personalised approach to optimise the alignment and functionality of the bite. Here’s an overview of the key steps:

1. Comprehensive Examination

A thorough examination of the teeth, jaw, and bite is conducted. This may involve digital imaging, impressions, and a detailed assessment of your dental history and symptoms.

2. Bite Analysis

Precise analysis of your bite is performed to identify any irregularities, misalignments, or areas of excessive pressure. This information guides the development of a targeted treatment plan.

3. Adjustment Procedure

Using specialised tools, the dentist makes precise adjustments to the surfaces of the teeth. This may involve reshaping certain areas to achieve a harmonious bite relationship.

4. Feedback and Refinement

Throughout the procedure, the dentist seeks feedback from the patient to ensure comfort and effectiveness. Additional refinements may be made as needed to achieve the desired bite balance.

5. Post-Adjustment Evaluation

After the adjustment, the dentist evaluates the bite again to confirm optimal alignment. Any necessary final touches are made to ensure a balanced and functional bite.

6. Patient Education

Patients are educated on proper oral care practices and provided with guidance on maintaining their improved bite alignment. This may include recommendations for ongoing oral health maintenance.

7. Follow-Up Care

A follow-up appointment may be scheduled to monitor the effectiveness of the Occlusal Therapy and address any additional concerns or adjustments that may be needed.
