Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the accuracy for measurement of the T-Scan system experimentally as a quantitative diagnostic device for occlusion.
The following conclusion can be drawn from this study:
1. The force sensitivity decreased gradually each time the constant pressure was added in the same line on the new ‘hot sensor®’, and reached plateau at last.
2. The results confirm that the lowest sensitivity areas exist on both sagittal and transverse axes of the sensor and that they coinside in position with the gaps between electrical conductive stripes in the sensor.
