Occlusion Design Members Special Seminar Series

I am creating a Special Guest Series of seminars for members with the plan to connect excellent speakers from around the world to my members with online webinars.

The next Special Guest Speaker will be Dr. Yosi Nahmias TODAY Tuesday, March 31 at 2PM Eastern 

The name of this presentation is The Endodontic Diagnosis Puzzle.

During this presentation Dr. Nahmias will present a step by step approach in order to aid the dental operator to arrive at the correct pulpal diagnosis. This lecture will also address difficult diagnostic cases presented to us in everyday practice along with most up-to-date advances in microscopic endodontics and CBCT to aid in treatment planning.

Here is a slide from his presentation.


After Dr. Nahmias the next Special Guest Speaker will be Dr. Didier Dietschi next Thursday, April 2nd at 2PM Eastern. 

The name of this presentation is Interceptive treatment of tooth wear: no-prep & ultra-conservative protocols.

Here is the Lecture General Synopsis.
Tooth wear represents a frequent pathology with multifactorial origins. Behavioural changes, unbalanced diet, various medical conditions and medications inducing acid regurgitation or influencing saliva composition and flow rate, trigger tooth erosion. Awake and sleep bruxism, which nowadays are widespread functional disorders, induce attrition. It then became increasingly important to diagnose early signs of tooth wear so that proper preventive, and if needed, interceptive-restorative measures are taken. Such disorders have biological, functional and also aesthetic consequences. Following a comprehensive clinical evaluation, treatment objectives, such as a proper occlusal and anatomical scheme as well as a pleasing smile line, are usually set on models with only anterior teeth or full mouth waxup (analogue or digital), depending on the severity of tissue loss. Based on the new Vertical Dimension of Occlusion (VDO) set on the articulator, combinations of direct, moulded and indirect restorations (using composite resins or monolithic high-strength ceramics) can help to re-establish anatomy and function. The use of adhesive and ultra-conservative techniques has proven its potential, in particular for the treatment of moderate to advanced tooth wear. A modern approach to treat tooth wear shall involve a specific and detailed treatment planning involving its aetiology, risk factors control and the biomechanical status of each tooth to be treated. 
This program will review recent knowledge and clinical concepts related to various forms of early restorative interventions (using adhesive techniques) and their potential to restrict on-going tissue destruction and restore an attractive smile.

Leaning value: Understand the potential of interceptive approach (using no-prep adhesive techniques) to manage the majority of cases and prevent progression of this pathology toward severe tooth wear 

Dr. Dietschi sent me a few slides from this excellent presentation and I have placed them into the images below to give you an insight into the quality of his work. I am looking forward to learning from this master clinician.  


After Dr. Dietschi the next Special Guest Speaker will be Dr. Naheed Mohamed On Tuesday, April 7th at 2PM Eastern.

The name of this presentation is Minimally Invasive Soft Tissue Grafting Techniques For Teeth And Implants.

This webinar will showcase minimally invasive techniques in periodontal plastic surgery. A collection of microsurgical procedures will be demonstrated in order to treat conditions such as mucogingival defects, gingival recession, peri-implant defects, and papilla reconstruction. Various treatment modalities and the scope of soft tissue dental surgery will be presented along with innovative suturing techniques. The viewer will gain a better understanding of the versatility of soft tissue grafting and its advantages in various surgical applications.

Naheed is the periodontist I refer my patients to and he presented a webinar teaching hard tissue grafting last fall for my members. When I asked who I should book for this new seminar series many members asked about having Naheed return for a second presentation and he agreed to join us. 


Last month I travelled to the Pikos Institute in Florida to attend a 3 day hands on workshop by Dr. José Carlos Da Rosa teaching the IDR technique. I was so impressed with this training that I asked Dr. Rosa if he would be interested in teaching a seminar for my members in the fall of 2020.

With the world events I decided to create my Occlusion Design Members Special Seminar Series with the plan to connect excellent speakers from around the world to my members with online webinars and seminars and we decided to move up the seminar from later in the year to Friday, April 17th. This will be a full day seminar to learn about IDR.

The title of the lecture is Immediate Dentoalveolar Restoration (IDR) - Technique and Science

Here is the COURSE DESCRIPTION:

The Immediate Dentoalveolar Restoration (IDR) is a surgical and prosthetic powerful technique established to broaden indications for immediate loading on individual compromised teeth. It is a technique that allows tissue losses with varied extensions in compromised sockets to be reconstructed in the same surgical session of implant placement and provisional crown installation, reducing the number of interventions and making esthetic aspects predictable. 

The main focus of the lecture is to present the IDR protocol, which advocates minimally invasive surgery and flapless procedures, and discuss about very challenging clinical cases in anterior zone in combination with severe bone loss, and its biological response. This is a new perspective to manage compromised sockets in a simplest and reproducible way.

This will be another excellent learning experience for my Occlusion Design members.

Dr. Rosa sent me a few slides from this excellent presentation and I have placed them into the images below to give you an insight into the quality of his work. I believe this is a game changer to the management of the missing or deficient buccal plate and I am looking forward to having my members learn from this master clinician. 

INTRODUCING OCCLUSION DESIGN 
INTRODUCING OCCLUSION DESIGN 
Occlusion Design is my flagship clinical-training and coaching program.
 
I have created and built the curriculum to teach general dentists the systems to manage more complex wear, esthetic and full mouth rehabilitation patients.
 
There is nothing else like this in dentistry because of the interactive coaching aspect of the membership. Not only do you receive a comprehensive curriculum of online video modules to teach you predictable systems to manage the more complex cases in
your dental practice, but...
 
You also will receive coaching advice from me each and every month with the monthly members coaching webinars. The really cool benefit is that you can send us the digital records of your cases and I can answer questions and help you with them during the monthly coaching webinars.
 
This makes an Occlusion Design membership very unique in dentistry so if you would like to take advantage of this offer click the ENROLL NOW button at the bottom of this page and join our Occlusion Design online community. 

“Best investment I have ever made in my dental education.”  
Dr. Cory Wooff  
Occlusion Design Member

“Dr. Phelan has taken material that has seemed mysterious since Dental School and has made it very accessible and comprehensive in scope. I would have loved to have access to this information 10 years ago.”

Guidance
Do you have questions about specific patient cases in your practice right now but you are not sure who to ask? Each and every month our Occlusion Design members webinars are dedicated to treatment planning and trouble-shooting members cases. All you have to do is send us your digital case records the week before and they will be added to presentation for us to talk about together online.

Confidence
You will have the ability to review training videos for the procedures you have planned before you have to start the treatment. Imagine having a six unit porcelain veneer case scheduled and the day before the preparations you can review the preparation, provisional and bite record techniques and videos online giving you the confidence that the everything will be perfect.

Community
You are not going to be alone anymore. Your Occlusion Design membership adds you to our online community and we get together each and every month for the members webinars where you will see new cases Dr. Phelan is treating in his practice. You will also be able to ask questions during the webinars or beneath any training video on the membership site or on the forum. 

Training
The core curriculum of Occlusion Design includes detailed step-by-step training videos which will teach you comprehensive diagnostic records, risk assessment and treatment planning for complex wear patients, core build-up techniques and rebuilding structurally compromised teeth, altering gingival levels for teeth and dental implants, preparation techniques for crowns, veneers, onlays, glove crowns, impression and provisional techniques, bite record techniques, bonding and seating techniques, and finishing and perfecting the occlusion. 

PDF documents are available with each module that you can use with the cases in your practice. These are the same documents Dr. Phelan uses in his practice with his patients. 
Your Foundation for Treating Full mouth Rehabilitation and Complex Cases will be established with the 6 Core-Training Modules
6 Separate Core-Training Modules
The first module of Occlusion Design is Comprehensive Diagnostic Records with 17 total training videos and 6 PDF downloads. The focus of this module is to teach you how to complete a functional analysis that results in 2 sets of precisely mounted diagnostic quality models that you can use for every step of your cases going forward.
 
I will teach you 3 predictable systems for taking CR bite records and how to screen out problematic TMD patients. I will also teach you how to take an acurate Facebow recording that accurately relates the maxillary cast on the articulator so that it reflects your patients actual clinical situation. 
 
Next I will teach you how to take your records and mount your cases on the articulator and how to determine if this is accurate and what to do if it is not. 
 
I will also share with you a video I filmed completing a functional analysis on a patient and the actual model analysis for a complex full mouth wear patient.
The second module of Occlusion Design is Risk Assessment with 8 total videos and 5 PDF downloads.
 
The focus of this module is to teach you my Risk Assessment Profile System and how to use it to identify the patients that are at higher risk to treat in your practice. This module will focus on the assessment of different types and severity of tooth wear. I will use numerous examples of moderate to severe tooth wear from my practice to illustrate the teaching material. 
 
Bruxism, Parafunction, Dysfunction, and other forms of tooth wear will be defined, identified and assessed for risk. I will also share with you the different types of appliances I am using in my dental practice to manage the risk associated with these different patients.
The third module of Occlusion Design is Treatment Planning For Complex Cases with 11 total videos and 2 PDF downloads including my Force Management Checklist.
 
The focus of this module is treatment planning the high-risk wear patient including options for altering the vertical dimension for patients with no room for restorative material due to severe tooth wear. 
 
I created a Force Management Checklist to help you to create an Occlusion Design that will work for wear patients even when you expect them to continue to grind their teeth after treatment.
 
A detailed evaluation for treatment planning esthetics will also be included in this module. 
The fourth module of Occlusion Design is Pretreatment Case Preparation with 11 total videos and 2 PDF downloads.

The focus for this module is rebuilding structurally compromised teeth, altering the gingival levels around teeth and dental implants and equilibration of the natural dentition.
 
I have very detailed training videos for these procedures including the equilibration for 2 different patients, post and core build-up techniques and gingival alterations filmed with my Zeiss ProErgo Microscope.
The fifth module of Occlusion Design is Preparation Techniques, Impressions and Provisional Restorations with 14 total videos and 4 PDF downloads.
 
The focus of this module is the conservative preparation of teeth using a series of very predictable systems and this module has extensive technique videos as well so you can see exactly how I am completing these essential procedures.
 
I will also share with you how I take an accurate full arch impression with all of the teeth prepared the first time. 
 
This module is completed by teaching a very predictable system to create long-term provisional restorations. This system works with full coverage and veneer restorations. I will detail the provisional cements that I use for both full coverage and veneers in both short and long term situations.
The sixth module of Occlusion Design is Preparation Bite Records, Lab Communication, Bonding Cases and Finalizing the Occlusion with 15 total videos and 8 PDF downloads.
 
This is another large and comprehensive module that leaves no stone unturned in the effort to teach you how I finish cases from a 4-unit veneer case all the way to full mouth rehabilitation.
 
I will detail all of the final cements that I use in my practice. This module has extensive digital video to demonstrate how I bond in a variety of cases including the entire full length recording for bonding and finishing a full upper arch of porcelain restorations including one dental implant.
