When should the correction of occlusal prematurities be performed?
1 At the same time as soft tissue surgery
2 Before starting soft tissue therapy
3. Gross corrections should be done be- fore surgery and finer adjustments after surgery
4. After tissue healing, following surgery is completed
Periodontics
Answer: 3
Addressing significant occlusal prematurities prior to surgical intervention
prevents undue stress and facilitates proper healing, while finer adjustments
can be made post-surgically.1
