Types of <strong>balanced</strong> <strong>occlusion</strong><br />

1).Unilateral <strong>balanced</strong> <strong>occlusion</strong>:<br />

Type of <strong>occlusion</strong> when occusal surfaces of<br />

teeth on one side occlude simultaneously, as<br />

a group, with a smooth uninterrupted glide.<br />

2). Bilateral occlusal balance type of <strong>occlusion</strong><br />

seen when simultaneous contact occurs on<br />

both the sides in centric and eccentric<br />

positions.<br />

For minimal occlusal balance,<br />

there should be atleast<br />

3 point contact on occlusal<br />

plane (2 posterior & 1 anterior).
