Abstract

A modified version of the Mühlemann macroperiodontometer was used to study horizontal tooth mobility in 36 human subjects with sliding interferences. lt was found an increased horizontal tooth mobility in the group of teeth which received the impact at the end of the slide in centric as compared to the control group. However, the physiologic tooth mobility limits were not exceeded. The results demonstrated a great variation in horizontal tooth mobility values for specific teeth.
