The cumulative incidence rate of treatment requests was 2/54 in the treatment group and 11/58 in the control group. The relative risk was 5.12. The 95 per cent confidence limits were 1.14 and 23.1, respectively. The difference between groups was statistically significant (P = 0.0336). Systematic elimination of occlusal interferences significantly reduced the incidence of requests for treatment of symptoms in the head and cervicobrachial region. This is in contrast with the view that there is no, or at best, an insignificant health risk from occlusal interferences.
