[The development of methods for the objective assessment of occlusal parameters].
For reasons of different data in literature on occlusal parameters and their metric registration, at the beginning of the 80's two methods independent of each other were developed--the capacity measuring method and the quasiplanimetry method to register the total occlusal contact area and the number of occlusal surfaces of contact at dental casts. The results obtained independently from each other showed a high degree of correspondence. That's why the method of quasiplanimetry was further developed and used for the direct analysis of enorally obtained wafers of different characteristic. The method is improved now with a modern system of digital analysis. The results obtained up to now admit the conclusion that the occlusion of the teeth represents an individual condition of high variability. With the reproducible method used individual occlusal parameters can be numerically registered.
