- To evaluate a patient?s bite, Dr. McKay relies on a computerized device called a Tekscan or T-scan. A sensor scans the entire mouth and measures the amount of force on each pair of teeth.
- Most dentists still use low-tech articulating paper, an ink-like material to see how teeth contact other teeth.
- Articulating paper cannot measure timing and force, critical information needed to correctly recalibrate your bite.
- Detects cracked or broken teeth and wear and tear from grinding or clinching.
