Join Paul Tipton on Tuesday 11 February at 7pm as he discusses treatment options for the wear patient.
This presentation will discuss the aetiologies of tooth wear, including stress and bruxism, and the influence that occlusion has on bruxism and wear.
The treatment modalities that will be shown include occlusal splint therapy, composite restorations to improve occlusion and ceramic partial and full mouth reconstructions, dealing with treatment protocols for design and planning from diagnostic waxing to planning occlusal planes and occlusal vertical dimension (OVD).
Specific emphasis will be placed on understanding the five principles of occlusion and establishing Class 3 leverage when restoring.
During this webinar, Professor Paul Tipton aims to explain:
- The link between stress and wear
- The symptoms of occlusal disease
- The alternative treatments of wear
- Different types of occlusal splints
- When to use composite and ceramic.
