PGO Website, Reference Papers –
This collection of selected references account for about 5% of the referenced material read in the inceptive phases of
the evolution of the suppositions that are the basis for the disciplined studies being conducted at Loughborough
University. If there are papers which have been omitted and the searcher/reader wishes them added to the
bibliography, they may be emailed to info@pgocclusion and all due consideration will be given to their addition.
We recognize that, while this is an old subject of much debate, it is an ever evolving area of study with ever more
sophisticated instrumentation. It is readily apparent that there is not an existing, adequate answer that describes the
function of the human dental/occlusal system. However, we believe the work represented in this integrated effort is
well disciplined, objective and as free of prejudice and bias as possible.
Thank you for your interest.
