THE AURUM GROUP STUDY CLUB

DR. BEN SUTTER

DIGITAL OCCLUSION AND DISCLUSION TIME REDUCTION (DTR)

3 CE Credits

COURSE OUTLINE: 

Digital occlusal analysis brings objective occlusal contact force measurement, and tooth contact time sequence display capability in 3/1000ths of a second, to clinical dentistry.  

Over the last 33 years, the T-Scan computerized occlusal analysis technology has been evolving making today’s T-Scan 9 to be highly precise, repeatable, and accurate. The T-Scan allows the clinician to “see” occlusion in ways analog occlusal indicators cannot.  

This table clinic will illustrate advantages digital occlusion holds over analog occlusal indicators. Case presentations involving a splintless TMD therapy and reconstructive cases will be presented.
