Gain confidence and remove the confusion and fear surrounding occlusion in your practice, allowing you to treat patients more predictably and with less anxiety from a single second molar crown, to full arch restorations, or even patients with symptoms of facial pain.

What you will learn at this seminar:

  • Why occlusion can seem so complicated, but how predictable it is in most patients, and how to recognize the high-risk patient in advance.
  • To gain confidence in understanding the TMJ, and how easy it is to evaluate them as a potential problem for your patients, including possible solutions if they are a problem, and how to have a conversation with your patients about the TMJ.
  • To efficiently evaluate your patients’ muscles, and predict whether any therapy is necessary, which treatment, and how to discuss it with your patient.
  • What a complete joint and muscle exam looks like, and how efficiently it can be done in any practice (with multiple examples shown on video).
  • How to become confident in choosing among all the different occlusal appliances available, including a specific flow chart of the appliance choices based upon your patients’ symptoms and history, with an emphasis on how to discuss appliance therapy and fees with your patients.
  • How and when to utilize mounted models in your occlusal treatment-planning process, including what facebows do, how to use them, why you would use one, and three different methods of predictably making the bite records used to mount the models.
  • To determine if occlusal equilibration is necessary, and how to perform one predictably and efficiently, including how to discuss it with your patients.
  • What to do with the occlusion of patients with excess overjet, anterior open bites, deep overbites, or Class III relationships who won’t do orthodontics.
  • How to perform bite records in restorative patients for simple posterior restorations to full arches, to full mouths, simply and predictably.

    This course will help any clinician begin to understand the different etiologies of occlusal disharmony and tooth wear. At a very high level walks you through different types of appliances and approaches to diagnosis patterns and wear and TMD symptoms. This course is fundamental to helping with functionally generated treatment planning with a comprehensive approach. Frank Spear and Greg Kinzer at their best

    An in depth discussion about single tooth to whole mouth cases in regards to occlusion. They talk about common myths in the dental world and back everything up with studies. Jim McKee is a genius and one of the most knowledgeable speakers on TMD.

    A great course in practical management of patients with occlusion issues. Most of the course was spent discussing cases that you would see everyday in practice. One portion was a little out there, using MRI to image TMJ issues. It was interesting but not really feasible in daily practice.

    I really appreciated Frank Spear lecturing for most of the two days, I’m not sure if he was around for the other seminars as much.

    The Spear campus was top notch and food was great as usual. Great seminar overall.

    One of the best values for your money. Highly recommended as a great refresher for older dentists and a great introduction for younger ones.
