Katona TR - This engineering analysis suggests flaws in widely held notions about the mechanics of occlusion. Loading that is generally considered clinically desirable is certain to produce undesirable loading on the opposing tooth. The complex relationships between the loads on teeth and crown-crown occlusal contacts make it virtually impossible to control tooth loading with occlusal equilibration. For computational and conceptual reasons, it is essential to consider the center of resistance.
