Abstract

A complete denture is a removable appliance used when all the teeth have been lost. It needs to be prostheticallyreplaced. Occlusal adjustment procedure or bite adjustment is performed to remove tiny interferences thatkeep teeth from coming together properly. The maxilla and mandible relationships must be establishedduring the fabrication of complete dentures. Adjustment of occlusion is necessary to account for inherenterrors. This research is seen as scoping literature review. In seeking to identify the relevant literature fromthe past twenty years, we used common databases such as the Pubmed and Google scholar online websites.37 articles are found relevant to the topic. 18 articles are reviewed for this study. The obtained articles werelater read thoroughly and understood. From this study, it is clear that when placing complete dentures, theocclusion should be corrected, as it is important for speaking, mastication. This occlusal adjustment isnecessary to eliminate errors apparent at the try- in stage, correction of occlusal disharmony. This providesa balanced contact between the teeth in the jaw. By comparing with other research and reviews, this reviewgives a detailed explanation about occlusal adjustments. Further studies have to be done on malocclusions.
