title: Management of tooth surface loss.
abstract: This part of the series is devoted to tooth surface loss (TSL) not caused by caries or trauma. The management of this form of generalised TSL is included in this series because knowledge of occlusion is needed for both the diagnosis and, when indicated, treatment. There are, however, many other factors involved in the management of generalised TSL other than those associated with 'occlusion'. These will also be discussed.
