German term or phrase: anatoform
"Anatoforme Reduktion

Anatoforme Reduktion bedeutet die Nachempfindung der natürlichen Konturen des Zahnes mit der Ausnahme, dass bei der Kronenpräparation der größte Umfang vom anatomischen Äquator in die Höhe des marginalen Randsaumes gelegt wird. Sehr häufig wird bei Frontzähnen die palatinale Konkavität vergessen und so resultieren plumpe unförmige Restaurationen (Abb. 7.4)."

From a text about ceramic restorations in dentistry. Is "anatoform" merely a synonym of "anatomisch"? TIA for your help.

"Reduction of anatomicAL form" seems to get a handful of search engine hits, more so than "reduction of anatomic form", so I'll go for that. But thanks to Ariane also for all her hard work - I only wish I could give points to both of you! Appreciate your help.
