A Guide to Good Occlusal Practice

More about the book

Focusing on occlusion across various dental disciplines, this book outlines guidelines for good occlusal practice (GGOP) tailored to each field, backed by expert contributions. It covers essential practices in restorative dentistry, removable prosthodontics, managing worn dentition, and implantology. The text emphasizes that GGOP varies by discipline, highlighting that the support for occlusal surfaces is crucial. A key principle is that occlusion is evaluated based on tissue responses, negating the concept of an inherently bad occlusion or malocclusion.
