<jats:p> Since 1934, the vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) in edentulous individuals has been anatomically determined mostly by referring to the resting jaw position. However, such a static method is not always accurate. Considering the dynamic nature of clenching/mastication, it is desirable to determine VDO dynamically. We demonstrate that VDO can be accurately determined by measuring masseter EMG during the voluntary isometric contraction of jaw-closing muscles exerted against the ramp load in the jaw-opening direction. </jats:p>
