A system for maximum intercuspation articulation, including a database including patient records and images, and a server in communication with the database and including processing circuitry configured to receive virtual modeling geometries of two opposing dental models as an input, wherein the two opposing dental models include an upper dental model and a lower dental model of the patient. The processing circuitry is also configured to detect intersection regions between the upper dental model and the lower dental model and perform a simulation on the two opposing dental models, wherein the simulation includes applying simulated physics rules at the two opposing dental models. The processing circuitry is further configured to repeat the detection of the intersection regions and the simulation to generate a maximum intercuspation alignment of the two opposing dental models, mark the intersection regions on the maximum intercuspation alignment, and output the maximum intercuspation alignment.
