The purpose of this study was to establish an index for evaluating occlusal conditions using energy levels. For this purpose, first, the movement of mastication under five occlusal conditions in which the positional relationship varied mesiodistally was simulated and the energy applied to the food being masticated was calculated, based on theoretical values of computing mechanics using finite element static analysis. As a model experiment, the energy generated under each occlusal condition was then measured using the electrical output from an occlusion pressure sensor composed of pressure-sensitive rubber. By comparing the theoretical values of computing mechanics and the measured values, the changes in the energy level under occlusal conditions were consistent with the trends, and the maximum value of the energy was obtained under the occlusal condition of Angle Class I and consisting of rigid interdigitation. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that occlusal conditions can be evaluated using the energy level as an index.
