The aim of this series of papers is to explore the role of occlusion in dental practice. The range of opinion in the dental profession as to the importance of occlusion is enormous. It is very important that the profession in general and practising dentists in particular have a balanced view of occlusion. This is more important than every patient having a balanced occlusion. The fact that the study of occlusion is characterised by extremes makes it confusing and possibly difficult for individual dentists to find a philosophy which is in line with contemporary good practice supported by evidence from practice-based research.
本系列论文的目的是探讨咬合在牙科实践中的作用。牙科行业对于咬合重要性的观点范围极为广泛。整个行业，尤其是执业牙医，对咬合有一个平衡的看法非常重要。这比每个患者都有平衡的咬合更为重要。由于咬合研究的特点是存在极端情况，这使得个别牙医难以找到一种与基于实践研究证据支持的当代良好实践相一致的理念，甚至可能感到困惑。
