Spherical Occlusion Theory - For Dentists and Dental Technician Team
4 lessons
Duration: 5 h 39 min
Individualized spherical occlusal surface calculation in clinical practice — A state-of-the-art application for managing complex occlusal rehabilitation!
Take a fresh look at the relationship between occlusion and TMJ problems, based on biomechanical evidence and individual patient aspects according to the individualized spherical occlusal surface calculation.
During the course, you will learn about:
– Data collection and processing of occlusion
– Quantitative 3D assessment of TMJ function according to the spherical occlusal surface calculation
– Digital approach to occlusal analysis according to the spherical occlusal surface calculation
– Protocols for the application of individualized spherical occlusal surface calculation for dentists and dental technicians.
