Occlusion Two, What's Next, and Two Announcements Worth Watching

Two weeks ago we wrapped Occlusion Two at our teaching centre in Frenchs Forest. It was a good weekend.

We opened with a full revision of Occlusion One, not just a recap, but a real discussion. These were clinicians who had been applying the concepts in practice, so the conversation had depth. That is what happens when you build courses sequentially and give people time to actually use what they have learned.

The bulk of the weekend was spent on articulators. A mock case, mounted up with digitally altered teeth. The group waxed up tooth by tooth, watching in real time how cusp shape and anatomy respond to mandibular movement. Then we moved into composite, repeated the same exercises, and finished with digital smile design and an anterior wax up with a focus on anterior disclusion.

Watching clinicians see that connection for the first time, tooth form dictated by function, is one of the more satisfying things we do here.

Great group. Thoughtful questions. Already looking forward to the next one.

Fixed Prosthodontics, 3 to 4 July

This one is close to full.

Two days with Dr Tom Giblin covering crowns, bridges, and veneers on natural teeth. The focus is on diagnosis, case selection, preparation design, and long term performance. Not new techniques. Better thinking before you pick up a handpiece.

The Study Club Is Coming

We have been quietly building this for a while now. Real clinical sessions, real case discussion, and some genuinely impressive people in the room every month.

Dr Tom Giblin has been putting this together carefully. More details in the next few weeks. Worth keeping an eye on.

Something Else Is Coming

We are not ready to announce this fully yet, but we will say this much.

Dr Tom Giblin and Professor Axel Spahr are putting together a major implant course.

That combination, and what they are planning, is worth paying attention to.

More soon.
