This study aimed to clarify the usefulness of automatic cleaning in analysis of occlusal force. The maximum occlusal force was calculated in 151 healthy adults before cleaning (B), after manual cleaning (M), and after automatic cleaning (A) and compared among the three conditions. The absolute value of the error rate of A, based on M, was calculated. The occlusal forces in M and A were similar and significantly smaller than the occlusal force in B. The absolute error rate of A was 2.4%. These results suggest that automatic cleaning has a similar effect to manual cleaning and can be applied clinically.
