[Studies on the difference between habitual intercuspidation and redrograde contact position].
In a study of a different subject, the difference between habitual intercuspidation and retral contact position was determined in 21 fully dentulous patients. Registration of the retral position of the mandible was performed by interocclusal wax records and the graphic method. In none of the probands, habitual intercuspidation and retral contact position coincided. In contrast to other authors, we found that siginificant differences between the two methods of registration are an explanation for the differences found betweeen the two positions of the mandible in the sagittal direction.
