The occlusal force of the teeth in the dental arch and the remaining adjacent natural teeth will change after implant restoration with a free-end missing tooth. This study intends to use the T-SCAN III scanner to collect dynamic quantitative data before and after the restoration of free-end implants and to explore the application of the T-SCAN III in redistributing the occlusal force of free-end implants. In this study, 24 patients with free-end implant restoration were selected, and their occlusion was tested before, immediately after, and 3 months after implant restoration.

At the same time, MRI scanned the opening and closed positions to obtain the image information of the articular disc and compared the diagnostic difference between MRI and DC/TMD to the position of the articular disc through statistical analysis.
Results: The probability of DC/TMD's diagnosis of reusable/nonreusable anterior disc displacement (ADD) was 80.
