„CAD/CAM DENTISTRY for private practice and restoring OVC WORN DENTITION“

Over the past few years there have been many advances in implants, aesthetics and occlusion. Using computerized techniques and digital impressions we can now predictably restore teeth in the anterior aesthetic zone. Implant restorations using new ceramic materials will be discussed and demonstrated. Using virtual models of articulation we can restore single units as well as full arches with computerized abutments. Using Aesthetic principles we can restore tooth aesthetics and facial aesthetics to its original beautiful colors. Evaluating different ceramic materials will also advance our knowledge as to when to use which materials for the worn dentition
Since our dental school education we were always told that “we could not open the bite”. Many clinicians avoided treating the “worn dentition” others had great success. This program will help de-mystifiy with practical methods of how to restore OVD position up to 10 mm. The long term success of these patients with these techniques has been documented and recorded both radiographically and with photographs with up to 10 year results. Using sound prosthodontic principles and digital analysis these OVD restorations can become standard in our private practice. Anterior determinants and posterior determinants can show us the way through this gray area of dentistry
