  28. Occlusal Impact • This early result could be achieved with an anterior jig or prop, Lucia or NTI. • The important aspect of the PGA is the muscle and joint stability. • We are also on a diagnostic path that is leading toward a stable conclusion. • Any anterior dis-occluding device must be replaced with a stable occlusal design. • PGA simulates a stable occlusal design and is in the progression to a final restoration.
