There appears to be a pendulum swing toward large epidemiologic studies questioning the role of occlusion in dentistry. This article clearly demonstrates that significant scientific evidence exists on the side of occlusal causative factors. Clinicians need this current information to base practical decisions of treatment relative to both patients and those requiring restorative procedures. It further correctly clarifies that stress-related issues have an important role, along with other host-susceptibility altering factors.
