DOES OCCLUSION MATTER? YOU BET IT DOES
Presented by Carl Driscoll, DMD
This course is for all dentists looking to up their level of occlusion knowledge. We will be looking at occlusion from a different perspective than usually presented starting with a review of philosophies of occlusion and the concepts that are currently being used that may be outdated and without merit. We will then proceed to discuss occlusal concerns with the growing patients that need prosthodontic treatment.
Objectives
- To learn the various growth stages that your patients may go through and how they affect your prosthodontic treatment planning and treatment.
- To better understand and apply the various occlusal schemes.
- To understand the use of occlusal devices in developing a stable occlusion.
- To prepare the attendee to treat more complex prosthodontic patients.
