THREE USA GENERATIONS OF

TEMPLATE THERAPY

Dr. Carl Storberg 1915 Duluth, Minnesota

Dr. Jack Stenger 1945 South Bend, Indiana

Dr. David Burns 1975 Fort Wayne, Indiana

Dr. Carl Storberg 1915 Duluth, Minnesota

Dr. Carl Storberg’s definition of

normal occlusion is that mandibular

maxillary relationships supported by

natural and/or artificial dentition

which permits all the structures

directly dependent on that

relationship to function in a state of

equilibrium.

Normal Occlusion

Intra-Occlusal Space

Intra-Occlusal space is that distance the

mandible moves from rest to full occlusion.

Rest Position

Rest position is that position of the mandible

from which all functional movement of the

mandible begins and ends.
