occlusion, working
Description:
the occlusal contacts of teeth on the side toward which the mandible is moved. From the mesial or distal view, the buccal and lingual cusps of the upper teeth appear to be end-to-end with the buccal and lingual cusps of the lower teeth, respectively. Viewed from the side, each upper cusp is distal to the corresponding lower cusp. The mesial incline of each upper cusp makes contact with the distal incline of the opposing cusp in front of it, and the distal incline of each upper cusp makes contact with the mesial incline of the opposing cusp distal to it.
