Most people seek to prevent failing teeth so they can have them throughout their lives, whenever possible. That’s why they take the time to brush and floss daily, visit their dentist twice a year and have root canals if necessary. But sometimes it isn’t possible to keep teeth healthy forever because of what is known as occlusal disease.
Occlusal disease, or OD, is what causes most dental restoration failures. Because occlusal disease is so destructive and expensive over time that it is even worse than tooth decay and advanced gum disease (periodontitis). The good news is, when having correctly diagnosed, occlusal therapy can greatly benefit patients struggling with this disease. It can also be a boon to dentists by helping to make dentistry an enjoyable and predictable process.
At the Los Angeles Institute of Clinical Dentistry & Ruiz Dental Seminars Inc., we are pleased to offer a practical occlusion Implementing Occlusal Therapy Workshop – Level 1 workshop for dentists coming up this October. After signing up for this workshop, you will be able to learn a modern, practical, and scientifically based philosophy for occlusion that you can successfully implement in your own practice.
This 2-day workshop will bring you one step closer to understanding everything you need to know about occlusion and occlusal therapy. From learning how to perform patient exams so you can determine the signs and symptoms showing occlusal disease, and how to apply Phase II occlusal analysis records as well as CR bites, load testing and mounted casts. The workshop will teach you how you can create equilibration, teach your patient about how to fight this disease and get them to accept correct treatment while your practice methods remain highly ethical and also profitable.
No one is more qualified than Dr. Jose-Luis Ruiz when it comes to teaching this rather complex and often confusing topic. He has an educator and dental practitioner’s knack for simplifying the subject so it is simple and easy to learn and comprehend. He backs up his teaching with scientifically based research and literature so you can see for yourself the merits of this philosophy. Just taking this occlusal course can have you incorporating this therapy into your practice and accepted by your patients.
If you are interested in learning this occlusal disease management system and how to take a logical step to diagnosis from seeing the signs and symptoms in your patients smiles, as well as how to use a comprehensive occlusal and to diagnose TMJ and how to boost the longevity of dental restorations you are in the right place. This workshop will also show you how (and when) you should recommend night guards or splints to treat your patient’s occlusal disease and how to get them motivated to choose occlusal treatment.
This two-day workshop will leave you motivated and knowledgeable in how to take even better care of your dental patients.
