| generated occlusal path | A registration of the path's of movement of the occlusal surfaces of mandibular teeth on a plastic or abrasive surface attached to the maxillary arch. See: functional chew-in record. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mesiobucco-occlusal | Relating to the angle formed by the junction of the mesial, buccal, and occlusal surfaces of a bicuspid or molar tooth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mesiolinguo-occlusal | Denoting the angle formed by the junction of the mesial, lingual, and occlusal surfaces of a bicuspid or molar tooth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mesio-occlusal | Denoting the angle formed by the junction of the mesial and occlusal surfaces of a bicuspid or molar tooth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| working occlusal surfaces | The surface's of teeth upon which mastication can occur. (05 Mar 2000) |
| deflective occlusal contact | A condition of tooth contact's which diverts the mandible from a normal path of closure to centric jaw relation. Synonym: cuspal interference, interceptive occlusal contact, premature contact. (05 Mar 2000) |
| denture occlusal surface | That portion of the surface of a denture that makes contact or near contact with the corresponding surface of an opposing denture or tooth. Synonym: facies occlusalis dentis, facies masticatoria, grinding surface, masticating surface, masticatory surface, occlusal surface. (05 Mar 2000) |
| distobucco-occlusal | Relating to the distal, buccal, and occlusal surfaces of a bicuspid or molar tooth; denoting especially the angle formed by the junction of these surfaces. (05 Mar 2000) |
| distolinguo-occlusal | Relating to the distal, lingual, and occlusal surfaces of a bicuspid or molar tooth; denoting especially the angle formed by the junction of these surfaces. (05 Mar 2000) |
| disto-occlusal | 1. Relating to or characterised by distoclusion. 2. Denoting a compound cavity or restoration involving the distal and occlusal surfaces of a tooth. 3. Denoting the line angle formed by the distal and occlusal walls of a class V cavity. Synonym: disto-occlusal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interceptive occlusal contact | A condition of tooth contact's which diverts the mandible from a normal path of closure to centric jaw relation. Synonym: cuspal interference, interceptive occlusal contact, premature contact. (05 Mar 2000) |
| occlusal | <dentistry> The chewing or grinding surface of the bicuspid and molar teeth. (08 Jan 1998) |
| occlusal adjustment | Selective grinding of occlusal surfaces of the teeth in an effort to eliminate premature contacts and occlusal interferences; to establish optimal masticatory effectiveness, stable occlusal relationships, direction of main occlusal forces, and efficient multidirectional patterns, to improve functional relations and to induce physiologic stimulation of the masticatory system; to eliminate occlusal trauma; to eliminate abnormal muscle tension; to aid in the stabilization of orthodontic results; to treat peridontal and temporomandibular joint problems; and in restorative procedures. (12 Dec 1998) |
| occlusal analysis | A study of the relations of the occlusal surfaces of opposing teeth and their effect upon related structures. Synonym: bite analysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
