About the course:
For over 40 years, Dr. Peter Dawson and our team of Faculty have been the leading source of high-quality, life-changing occlusal education. While you have many options in choosing CE, The Dawson Academy's groundbreaking expertise has shaped the educational mold for providers everywhere.
Not knowing the requirements of a stable occlusion can result in missed diagnoses and failed treatment. Join Drs. Hess and Cranham this March to discover how-to practice long-lasting, predictable dentistry.
As Dr. Peter Dawson said, the latest trends, techniques, and materials without a basic understanding of occlusal principles only allow bad dentistry to be practiced faster.
The cornerstone of The Dawson Academy philosophy is a comprehensive understanding of how the TM joints, muscles, proprioceptive input, lower anterior teeth, upper anterior teeth, lower posterior teeth, and upper posterior teeth are designed to function in harmony with one another.
Complete Care Dentistry® is centered around a philosophy that form follows function, resulting in dentistry that’s not only beautiful but is long-lasting and predictable.
Course Objectives
⦁ Identify the 10 factors critical to a stable occlusion resulting in the long-term success of general and cosmetic cases
⦁ Explain how to identify, prior to treatment, which patients pose a risk of future instability
⦁ Summarize why predictable patient outcomes result from a stable occlusion and how to identify, in advance of treatment, which patients present a high risk
⦁ Plan to choose the best treatment options (reshape, orthodontics, restorative, orthognathic) to solve any occlusal/esthetic problem
⦁ Determine tooth positioning for orthodontics, veneers, crowns, or implant-supported restorations
⦁ Utilize checklists for functional-esthetic analysis and treatment planning
