The Truth about Occlusion:
When & How It Matters

Finally, the TRUTH that will remove the confusion and allow you to comfortably and confidently help so many of your patients.  This course will simplify occlusion simply by exposing the myths land allow you to simplify even complex restorative cases.  

  • Take the confusion out of TMD

  • Take the confusion out of OCCLUSION

  • End the Logic in the Absence of Science that Dominates the Occlusal Camps

For many years dentistry has been dominated by prevailing occlusal concepts that were initially presented in the 60’s by Ramjford and Ash.  Despite the lack of evidence of the role of “interferences to centric” and “pterygoid spasms,” these concepts remain at the heart of the dental model and restorative teachings.  The inevitable confusion has led to the development of occlusal “camps” dominated by belief system rather than principles of science.  

The resulting controversy has prevented the integration of critical muscle and joint concepts into general dentistry.  This program removes the controversy and exposes the myths.  You and your patients will benefit immediately as the role of function and parafunction and the methods of parafunctional control are thoroughly explored.  YOUR EVERY DAY DENTISTRY WILL BE IMPROVED; YOUR CONFIDENCE LEVELS WITH DEALING WITH PATIENTS WITH DENTAL AND FACIAL PAIN AS WELL AS “CLICKING” AND JOINT DYSFUNCTION WILL SOAR, AND THE NUMBER OF PATIENTS YOU CAN HELP WITH PAIN PATTERNS THAT YOU WILL NOW RECOGNIZE WILL MULTIPLY. YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF OCCLUSION IN EVERYDAY DENTISTRY WILL MAKE DAILY DENTISTRY EASIER AND TRULY MORE ENJOYABLE.

My favorite course

I am happy to report that a date has been set for my favorite course which I will be assisted by my colleague and brilliant teacher, Dr. Don Malizia.

Don is directly responsible for all the literature support in our evidence based practical program and provides incredible meaningful background to the entire experience. The recent literature looking a nociplasticity and trigeminal signaling further supports the anterior midpoint concept that we will be reviewing.

Dr. Don and I worked together for years at the Allentown Pain Center in Pennsylvania where we developed what came to be known as The Allentown Model — a model that is totally appropriate for general dentistry.  This course promises to be critically important to your everyday dentistry as we expose the myths that abound in the worlds of occlusion, orofacial pain and joint dysfunction.  

Once these myths are identified, the science becomes more predictable and straight forward.

This will be the last occlusion course you will ever need to take!
