Advanced Occlusion

Note: Facially Generated Treatment Planning and Occlusion in Clinical Practice Workshops are prerequisites to attend Advanced Occlusion.

Course Objectives

Does it seem like ending appliance therapy is harder than starting it? Do you wonder when to use an anterior bite plane or a full arch appliance? What about a posterior pivot? If designing, fabricating and inserting appliances is a system you’d like to streamline, Advanced Occlusion is your solution.

Participants Will Learn:

• Evaluation of muscle health and connection to occlusal findings
• To deliver, evaluate, and adjust anterior bite plane, full arch hard, and full arch soft appliances
• To differentially diagnose TMD and create a regime for treatment
• Equilibration skills for complex occlusions
• Selecting the appropriate appliance for every patient
• Developing individualized expectations of treatment
