Abstract

Taking occlusal photographs can be challenging; they are by far the most difficult images to obtain. Achieving an ideal photograph of every arch may not always be possible. In patients with limited range of motion of the mandible, an oversized or hyperactive tongue, an excessive gag reflex, or reduced flexibility of lips and checks, the goal of an ideal occlusal photograph may not be achieved. Nevertheless, patience, practice, and attention to detail can often provide a satisfactory result.
