Lingualized occlusion provides a useful combination of several occlusal concepts. Many advantages of anatomic and nonanatomic occlusions are retained. Adjustment to compensate for minor changes in vertical and centric relation is readily accomplished. Satisfactory occlusion is easily obtained, and balanced occlusion can be accomplished. The lingualized occlusal concept is not a panacea, and all other procedures still must be carefully executed.
A program of nutrition training has been included in the undergraduate curriculum of the University of Washington School of Dentistry. Data obtained indicated that involved patients were receptive and that many showed improvement in dietary habits. Nutritional analysis and counseling can be introduced into a private-practice environment with very little increase in the dentist's work time. Procedures have been suggested that are efficient and effective. It is recommended that nutritional analysis and counseling be used routinely on all prosthodontic patients. This training should be included in the dental school curriculum so that students can become competent and comfortable in its use. To meet this objective, in-service training programs for faculty members are required. Careful attention to systemic factors such as nutrition will allow dentists to provide an enhanced level of care for patients. Concern for the general health of patients must continue to be a necessary part of prosthodontic care.
