At Clínica Dental BONA, we believe that continuous education is crucial for providing high-quality care to our patients. That’s why all our professionals regularly attend courses and seminars to stay updated with the latest advancements.
Recently, our dentists attended a course at the prestigious Autrán Dental Academy in Madrid, known for its excellence in aesthetic and occlusion training.
Our doctors participated in the course titled “Practical Occlusion for Daily Clinical Practice,” which provided an in-depth and professional perspective on dental occlusion.
What is Dental Occlusion?
Dental occlusion refers to the relationship between the upper and lower teeth. It involves all factors affecting the stability and development of the masticatory system and the role of teeth in mouth motor activities.
Poor occlusion can lead to various dental, periodontal, and joint problems. Severe misalignment may require oral surgery and/or orthodontics.
Specialized Training in Occlusion
The course “Practical Occlusion for Daily Clinical Practice” covered various topics, including:
- Three-Dimensional Alignment of Posterior Teeth: Techniques for aligning the back teeth effectively.
- Anterior Guidance: Understanding how the front teeth interact during biting and chewing.
- Occlusal Splints: Using splints to manage and correct occlusion issues.
- Therapeutic Possibilities: Exploring different treatment options for occlusion-related problems.
The training at Autrán Academy included a valuable hands-on component, where attendees practiced under personalized, one-on-one supervision from the instructor.
Achieving a precise articulator setup and knowing when to adjust an occlusion can be complex. This course has equipped our experts with specialized knowledge, allowing them to provide accurate and up-to-date diagnoses of joint issues and conditions arising from poor occlusion.
Dr. Ríos: “This training provides a comprehensive update on diagnosing articulation problems.”
Dr. Marijuan: “It will help us identify the root causes of certain muscular and joint conditions caused by poor occlusion.”
