Occlusion Demystified
This course is presented in partnership with Utah Valley Dental Lab by Dr. David Hornbrook and Dr. Mark Montgomery.
Test Your Knowledge
What came first the decay or the abfraction? How often have you restored cases that look like this and didn’t determine the cause?
Is this erosion, parafunctional wear, or bulimia?
What is the long-term effect of an anterior open bite on the posterior tooth anatomy?
Some think this is acid reflux and others think it is occlusal abfraction. What is your diagnosis?
How many times have you restored cases like this and never knew how to address the underlying cause?
