About this episode
A series of chapters that systematically address the principles and application of occlusion across various dental disciplines, including restorative dentistry, periodontics, orthodontics, complete and partial prosthodontics, bruxism, tooth wear, and implantology. A central theme is the E.D.E.C. protocol (Examine, Design, Execute, Check) for treatment planning and the importance of comparing a patient's occlusion against the benchmark of ideal occlusion, while recognizing that the ultimate judgment of occlusion is based on the adaptive capacity of the patient's articulatory system. The material consistently emphasizes the need for thorough pre-treatment examination and accurate recording of the existing occlusion to avoid iatrogenic harm. Numerous sections discuss the proper techniques for finding and recording Centric Relation (CR) and the importance of achieving Centric Occlusion (CO) in CR as an ideal objective, particularly in complex cases or when fabricating prostheses.
