title: [The evaluation of intercuspal occlusion of healthy people with T-Scan II system].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To observe the occluding movement from mandibular postural position to intercuspal position in healthy people.
  
  
  METHODS
  The occluding movement in 30 healthy people from mandibular postural position to intercuspal position was recorded by T-Scan II system. The distribution of occlusal force, the center of force, the percentage of intercuspal position occlusal force in Max force and the occlusion time was analyzed by T-Scan II system and SAS 9.0 software package.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The results showed that there was no significant difference between the occlusal force of the two sides under the intercuspal position mode(P=0.3242). The average percentage of intercuspal position occlusal force in Max force was 96.89%. The confidence interval (CI) was 90.88%-100%. The average occlusion time was (0.2015 ± 0.0861)s. There was no correlation between the occlusion time and the percentage of intercuspal position occlusal force in Max force.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  We could introduce the position of the center of force, the percentage of intercuspal position occlusal force in Max force and the occlusion time to estimate the occlusal condition, and to judge the effect of occlusal therapy. ).
