French term

calage maxillo-mandibulaire

French to English Medical Medical: Dentistry implantology
I am translating a report on the fitting of dental implants to a patient. There are a series of photos one with the legend "Notez l’absence de calage maxillo-mandibulaire". Calage appears to be one of three occlusal conditions/functions (calage, centrage, guidage), one definition of calage is "une stabilisation dentaire et mandibulaire durable".
At the moment I am going with "occlusal stability" but am not sure if there is a standard English term. MTIA
