"Timeless Restorative Principles/Contemporary Digital Workflows"- John Cranham DDS,  Lee Culp CDT

Course Description

In this presentation, John and Lee will be doing a detailed review of the timeless principles of esthetics, occlusion, biologic health and tooth-bytooth structural integrity. Through a variety of clinical examples, they will illustrate how they work together, as a team, to solve complex problems (involving implants and teeth), utilizing 100 percent digital workflows. Special emphasis will be placed on case planning and how “diagnostic design” can be completed at the dental office (for practices who own the software), or at the dental lab; but why optimum data collection and high level early communication, is critical for success.

Learning Objectives 

• Understand Centric Relation, Vertical Dimension, Neutral Zone, Centric “stops”, Anterior Guidance, Envelope of Function, and Posterior Disclusion… and why they are critical to long term success. 

• How to “stack” digital data sets to plan complex cases for optimum esthetics and function. 

• How the laboratory can support the restorative practice in the provisional phase with implants and teeth. 

• Strategies for altering vertical dimension, utilizing contemporary printable options. 

• How to plan the treatment phase to optimize the outcome, and maximize efficiency.
