Abstract

Twenty patients discharged from the Orthodontics Service of the Faculty of Stomatology of Havana City that were not over 30 years old were studied aimed at analyzing the frequency of occlusal interferences, taking into account the working area, the lateral function and the sliding of the centric relation to a maximal intercuspidation position. The study revealed the predominance of patients with occlusal interferences. The highest percentage of patients with interferences of centric relation to a maximal intercuspidation position was found in the closing line.
