Dental attrition has been investigated in depth. Besides alterations in arch length due to attrition, skeletal and intra-arch differences were discovered. It is felt that these findings do have value in helping us realize that present-day concepts of proper occlusion cannot necessarily be applied to dentitions that existed at another time. A more thorough knowledge of occlusions exhibiting dental attrition provides information that is helpful in understanding more fully the nature of tooth eruption and associated dental arch occlusion and the interrelationships of these factors with supporting skeletal structures.
