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.
牙齿磨耗已得到深入研究。除了磨耗导致牙弓长度改变外，还发现了骨骼和牙弓内的差异。人们认为，这些发现对于帮助我们认识到当今关于正常咬合的概念不一定适用于过去存在的牙列具有重要价值。对表现出牙齿磨耗的咬合情况有更全面的了解，能提供有助于更充分理解牙齿萌出的本质、相关牙弓咬合以及这些因素与支持性骨骼结构之间相互关系的信息。
