Inclusion criteria: Non-compliance of the central relationship with the maximum intercuspation Ability to walk at least 10 meters independently without the use of auxiliary devices Ability to stand independently on the highest level of stability of the Biodox device

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Having a history of neurological disease, systemic disease, equilibrium or labyrinthine disease Having acute or major orthopedic problems, especially in the pelvis, lower limbs and spine Existence of acute uncorrected vision problems The presence of sensory disturbances or vascular pathology in the lower extremities Have a history of falling in the last year History of heart attack in the last 6 months History of fractures of the lower limbs in the last year

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Medial-lateral stability index (MLSI)This number, calculated by the device, is the oscillation of the center of gravity of the body relative to the zero point on the medial-lateral axis. Naturally, the lower the number of index indicates the better the stability and lower postural deviation. Timepoint: 1. Before the intervention of the first session 2. After the intervention of the first session 3.One month after the first session. Method of measurement: The variable was collected by the Biodex system as a result of the sample performances.;Anterior-posterior stability index (APSI)This number, calculated by the device, is the oscillation of the center of gravity of the body relative to the zero point on the anterior-posterior axis. Naturally, the lower the number of index indicates the better the stability and lower postural deviation. Timepoint: 1. Before the intervention of the first session 2. After the intervention of the first session 3.One month after the first session. Method of measurement: The variable was collected by the Biodex system as a result of the sample performances.;Overall stability index (OSI)This number, calculated by the device, is the oscillation of the center of gravity of the body relative to the zero point on the overall axis. Naturally, the lower the number of index indicates the better the stability and lower postural deviation. Timepoint: 1. Before the intervention of the first session 2. After the intervention of the first session 3.One month after the first session. Method of measurement: The variable was collected by the Biodex system as a result of the sample performances.
