Abstract:

The direction of action of masticatory pressure on the teeth depends on the position of the teeth, their morphology and position of the mandible to the maxillary, central or eccentric .The closer is the chewing withstanding carried out in a direction to the axis of the tooth; the greater is the periodontal protection. This study highlights various methods of reconstruction crown-root and sustainability criteria through the eyes of functional occlusion.
