Advanced Occlusal Knowledge Leading to More Predictable Outcomes.

Occlusion Two is the essential follow on to Occlusion One. This is where you take theory learned in the first course and apply it to your everyday dentistry.

This course is 2 days of hands on practical teaching.  There will be a short refresher from Occlusion One, then on to practical exercises including waxing up occlusal anatomy on articulators, doing similar in composite resin, before doing an anterior rehab including smile design and building optima; anterior guidance.  The focus is on practical knowledge, not theory.

What this course is about

• Understanding occlusal forces and managing them in your restorations.
• Occlusal design- different theories and when to use them
• Diagnosing occlusal issues and how to address them
• Designing restorations that work in harmony with the patient
• Choosing the appropriate materials for the restorations
• The complementary digital workflows to these analogue techniques
• Case studies to demonstrate these principles being put into practice

A large portion of the course is spent designing and refining occlusion on articulators, both in wax and composite. This builds deep, practical understanding of how restorations should be designed and implemented to achieve long term stability.

What the course covers

• Advanced application of occlusal principles
• Intensive hands on exercises
• Designing occlusion to support function and longevity
• Understanding force, load, and function in restorations
• Identifying why restorations fail over time
• Designing restorations that last
• Utilising occlusal principles in digital workflows

Hands on learning

This is a practical course. Bench top exercises and articulator work form the core of both days. We will supply articulators of you do not have one from the previous course.  Please let us know if you are bringing your own.

What you will get out of it

• Confidence to diagnose and troubleshoot occlusal issues
• Skills you can apply immediately in daily practice
• Greater confidence in planning and executing complex cases
• Fewer adjustments, remakes, and complications
• Clearer tools to assist you in more complex cases
• Practical knowledge you can apply to both analogue and digital workflows
• This course includes 16 CPD hours.

For your practice and your career

Better occlusion leads to better outcomes. Restorations function better, feel better, and last longer. Patients notice the difference. Over time, this consistency builds trust, confidence, and professional reputation.
