[A new ultrasound system for recording masticatory function in implant patients].
Chewing patterns were measured in patients with unilateral osseointegrated oral implant bridges. An intraindividual comparison was made between the implant-treated and the conventionally treated side. Measurements were made with a newly developed device operating on the principles of ultrasonics. A motor stepper-driven simulator (jaw replicator) was connected to investigate the occlusion during the terminal masticatory movements. No significant differences were found between the implant and the control side.
