title: [Selective grinding in dental occlusion].
abstract: Occlusion has often to be corrected by grinding, should it be in T. M. J. pain-dysfunction cases, in periodontal cases or for the adjustment of prostheses. Indications and contra indications, clinical diagnosis, different means of marking interferences and the technique for grinding them in centric relation, protrusion and laterality are described. Emphasis is put on the necessity of completing the equilibration when it has been started because it is a general feeling that patients might become occlusion conscious and might be in danger of catching parafunctions.
