Upcoming Medical Conferences in Las Vegas

Advanced Bite Management and Transfer - Level 6 (Hands On) is organized by Occlusion Connections (OC) and will be held from Aug 23 - 24, 2019 at True Dentistry, Las Vegas, Nevada, United States of America. The target audience for this medical event is General Dentists, Specialists, Laboratory Technicians. This Conference has been approved for a maximum of 16 Continuing Education credit hours. Description: How to transition your removable and fixed orthotic to full mouth wax up and reconstruction is foundational for all advanced dentists. Dr. Chan presents and discusses in details his 2 Bite Management & Transfer System/Protocols that are required of all full mouth dentists and laboratories to master the keys to precise multi-dimensional occlusal management of any comprehensive reconstruction - . It requires an understanding of specific steps and protocols to get the results of precision and predictability. How to communicate with the laboratory technician is key to predictable and consistent results as it relates to upper and lower arch cases. Most dentists are not familiar with what is required by the advanced laboratory technician who focuses on cosmetic arch reconstruction cases. Yet the technician puts up with flimsy bite records and lack of proper registrations to satisfy the dentist client. It is not surprising why dentists and technicians frustrated with the process and outcomes, but this is due to lack of protocols and precise systems. Research has found that the technician often determines the maxillary cast mount for the doctor. This shouldn't be! This is not the fault of the laboratory, but should be the responsibility of the dentist to provide the proper records for accuracy and predictability of the bite and mounting of the case. Without proper maxillary cast leveling records, bite registrations and bite transfer protocols will have cants causing the dentists to continue to adjust and grind the new crowns into position. Numerous follow up adjustment visits and grinding of the bite in the finishing stage is not what dentist desire! There are specific records, models, photographs, bite registrations and matrixes that are key to transition from a phase I stabilization stage to a phase II finishing restorative stage predictably. Break this cycle and learn proven bite transferring protocols and techniques that will increase productivity, precision and the enjoyment of dentistry.  Course Objectives: • How to transfer and manage the bite precise with the lab technician. • Do you know what your laboratory technician desires to receive from the dentist in order to design the ideal aesthetics and occlusion without guessing? • Present specific techniques and protocols to manage a full mouth reconstruction from start to finish. • Why the Modifed Fox Plane recording is important to mount the maxillary cast properly. • OPI (Occlusal Plane Index) A key to functionally analyze the maxillary occlusal plane. • Step by step protocols for bite mounting. • Bite management steps from phase I to phase II. • Bite transitioning during the wax up stages • Optimized provisional matrixes to bring ease and precision to the bite. • Occlusal table designing and management steps for accuracy, precision and comfort with the laboratory technician. • Managing the Bite with Precision, Protocols and Hard Bites - Doctor Requirements • Coordinating the Bite with your Laboratory – Laboratory Requirements • Create the proper matrixes with the laboratory to ensure a precise and predictable result. • Learn the perspectives directly from dental technicians who see, know and experience what actually is going on at the front lines of the laboratory.

Level II builds on gnathologic and neuromuscular occlusal design principles and teachings from Level I-6, going beyond the establishing of myocentric DOT contacts. This interactive hands on didactic and lecture session develops an appreciation of micro-occlusion principles beyond Level 4 coronoplasty concepts. The importance of anterior cuspid rise and posterior disclusion schemes is taken to new levels and planned to enhance form and function of masticatory muscle dynamics. Occlusal lab exercises will be implemented to train the doctor to better understand cuspal, fossa and inclination form.  The student will bring their own orthotics to further their in-depth understanding and occlusal adjusting skill appreciation of how the OC teachings and GNM philosophy fills in the missing GAPs that exists within the restorative and TMD arena of clinical dentistry.  A precise process will be taught to determine every contour and position of incline planes as well as a method to better communicate every occlusal detail with your dental laboratory technician. In accordance with the principles of NMD, dentist learn the how’s and why’s of tooth preservation as well as restoring tooth form. They learn how to adjust the teeth to establish complete occlusion consistent with a stable gneuromuscular system. Form and arrangement of the anterior and posterior teeth are discussed as they relate to optimal muscle function and condylar positioning. The Class IV incline interference and more is presented in addition to classic coronoplasty teachings to better understand a missing component to the complex TMD case that has often gone unrecognized in the treatment of TMD primiary, cervical dysfunction, class II div. 2 , open bite tendency cases and advanced restorative dentistry.

This course is key for all clinicians who use electronic instrumentation to properly interpret, implement and record the K7 data in order to find solutions to clinical problems. (At OC we do not fit certain EMG and jaw tracking recording protocols to convenience our occlusal diagnosis and treatment paradigm). The Goal of Sound Scan Interpretation is: To understand and apply the meaning of the scans is more than information gathering, but more significantly it is about learning what the data means to you CLINICALLY as it relates to proper DIAGNOSIS and EFFECTIVE TREATMENT decision making. (If dentists doesn't understand how to record the data properly, one will get faulty data, draw the wrong clinical conclusions, make the wrong decisions, resulting in failed occlusal and TMD teatment). Questions to Ask Yourself: • Are you taking scans just because you think you need them for records, but really don't know exactly what they mean? • Are you ignoring certain scans because you don't think they are important? • Are you having difficulty in understanding EMG readings? • Do you realize the difference between diagnostic scans vs. treatment scans? • Have you gotten sort of lazy because many of the scan recordings do not make clinical sense to you? • There will be things that you never knew when you see how to apply the K7 scans clinically. • There will be things that you may have known but have forgotten. Even if you think you know it all you will find out that there is another level beyond classical NM K7 understanding. • The goal of clinicians who gathers objective diagnostic SCAN data is to understand and interpret the recorded information as it relates to each clinical situation for effective diagnosis and clinical treatment. • Patient profiles:how to relate the scans to clinical dentistry. • What does each scan mean relative to each patient profile? • Good data vs. scrambled data • What do high and low EMGs mean before and after TENS means when treating a case. • Case solutions to K7 interpretation problems • Resolving hyper anterior temporalis EMG problems using OC protocols. • Resolving hyper cervical group EMG muscle problems using OC protocols. • Interpreting EMG and CMS correctly to get the right bite with Class II Div. 2 and anterior open bite cases. • Interpreting deficient overjet/overbite tracing problems. • Reverse pulse - Why?
