It describes multiple teeth on the working side touching together during side-to-side (lateral) movement. It is commonly discussed in restorative dentistry, prosthodontics, and occlusion when planning bite contacts. It is often compared with canine guidance, where the canine tooth carries most of the lateral contact."}
