Ok, I will add and make an Uberon release, there hasn't been one in a long time. Thanks!

I've updated the existing occlusal surface of tooth term (UBERON:8600149) with the requested changes:

✅ Updated definition to specify it applies to premolar and molar teeth and describes its chewing/grinding function
✅ Added synonym "chewing surface"
✅ Added synonym "masticatory surface"
✅ Added contributor ORCID https://orcid.org/0009-0002-7282-0836
✅ Added term tracker linking to this issue

Note: This term was previously added via issue #3602, so I updated the existing term rather than creating a new one.

Please review PR #3633.

Hi @wdduncan, I already created the term in #3603, but there hasn't been a release. Sorry, I don't work in Uberon anymore and I created the term but I didn't make sure if there was a release. I will make one this week. Apologies!

Completed in #3603
