Occlusion (dentistry): Applications, Clinical applications of occlusion & Anatomy of Masticatory System

Occlusion, in a dental context, means simply the contact between teeth. More technically, it is the relationship between the maxillary (upper) and mandibular (lower) teeth when they approach each other, as occurs during chewing or at rest.
