 note = {The purpose of this study was to investigate a suitable occlusal height for an implant prosthesis by examining the responses of the periodontal tissues around a natural antagonist. The subjects were three Japanese females with two posterior missing teeth restored by ITI system implants (Straumann). Two kinds of experimental implant prostheses were adjusted as follows; one was adjusted in heavy clenching (HC), and the other was adjusted in light clenching (LC). The periodontal pulsation, displacement during biting an occlusal force meter and the mobility of the antagonist were measured before and one week after temporary cementing HC and LC, and one week after removal. In each prosthesis, there was no significant difference in the amounts of the pulsation and mobility of the antagonist before and one week after cementing, and one week after removal (p>0.05). The displacement of the antagonist during biting the occlusal force meter did not change much during the conditions. The results of this study suggested that an implant prosthesis adjusted not only under heavy clenching but light clenching like crown restorations for natural teeth did not affect the periodontal tissues of the antagonist in a harmful manner.},
