We studied many postural tests with an electromyographical methodology on a group of young men who had a right molar precontact. We compared the results of these tests before and after changing the right plantar arch by placing some plastic on the medial right margin of the homolateral plantar arch (talipes valgus) or on the whole plantar arch (flat foot). We demonstrated the dependence of the occlusal plane on the morphological variations of the plantar arch.

D011187	Posture	The position or physical attitude of the body.	Postures
D003766	Dental Occlusion	The relationship of all the components of the masticatory system in normal function. It has special reference to the position and contact of the maxillary and mandibular teeth for the highest efficiency during the excursive movements of the jaw that are essential for mastication.
