Plain-language summary

Background: Occlusal contacts analysis is of prime importance in order to perform an effective prosthetic restoration. Quantitative methods for occlusal contact analysis involve using digital systems to measure and analyze occlusal contacts and forces with greater precision than traditional methods. One of these devices is the OccluSense which is sensor based system and basically used without any support of its sensor. Therefore the aim of this study is to clinically evaluate the validity of a customizable stabilizing tray to support the sensor of the OccluSense intraoral. A total of 22 healthy dental students, aged from 18-25 years, are recruited. Each participant will undergo two set of recordings; firstly by the OccluSense without centering tray then with the tray seated intraoral. Occlusal contacts were recorded under maximum bite force and Maximum Intercuspation Position (MIP).

Inclusion Criteria: \- intact arches, no missing teeth, and no TMD disorder. Exclusion Criteria: * patients with less than 24 natural teeth, the presence of active orthodontic treatment, as it could interfere with the data acquisition process, the presence of fixed restorations, severe malocclusion, and those with orofacial pain.

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

What they're measuring

total number of occlusal contacts recorded by the device

Timeframe: this study has unique characteristics. Each participant underwent two set of occlusal recordings with one week interval between the intervention and control toto minimize the risk of muscle fatigue. the outcomes were measured and analyzed instantly

total contact area and the Number of contact points

Timeframe: two visits with one week interval
