P065 Modjaw Tech in Motion, 4th Dimension Digital Dentistry. A Game Changer
Speaker Riaz Yar - “Our patients are adaptable”, that’s what I hear but how do we know. Do they adapt by reducing the chewing movement so to avoid any pain or complications, therefore have we simply restored the tooth, or can we improve the functionality of the system? How do we assess the functionality when we use an articulator to replicate these movements? A lot of unanswered questions so now with digital and 4D technology can we answer these questions.
Learning aims and objective:
Revisit and question the pillars of occlusion
How to record accurately the functional movements of our patients
To understand the importance of functional occlusion
To provide a basis for understanding the link between the TMJ and movement
