Occlusion in Implant dentistry
7 online lectures

The definitive course on fundamentals on Occlusion in Implant Dentistry.

This program provides you with fundamental concepts on occlusion and occlusal load in implant dentistry, from single implant-supported crowns to full-arch implant supported prostheses. This understanding will help you in treating cases with implant restorations in your daily practice.

Occlusion in Implant Dentistry video course also focuses on the biological and occlusal/biomechanical differences between natural teeth and implants, and includes several how-to videos on full occlusal assessment and occlusal schemes for various implant cases. Following these lectures, you will be able to plan occlusal schemes for various clinical scenarios with ease and confidence.

Occlusion in Implant Dentistry didactic objectives:

Introduce differences between natural teeth and implant;
Explain biomechanical consequences of occlusal overloading on implants;
Give an understanding of the principles of implant occlusion;
Introduce the concept of Implant Protected Occlusion; Discuss various occlusal schemes for different clinical scenarios


At the end of the course, you will:

Understand the principles used for implant occlusion and the different occlusal aspects in Implant Dentistry
Have full understanding of biological implications of occlusal overload on implants
Perform full occlusal assessment and carry out the information gathering process
Decide appropriate occlusal schemes for various implant cases, from single-tooth to full-arch cases
Record occlusion for implant cases

Who the course is for: Implantologists and general practitioners of all levels of experience who are eager to know more about the principles of occlusion, occlusal load and occlusal schemes in Implant Dentistry.
