Details

Presented in the first, second, and third quarters of the freshman year, basic occlusal concepts and procedures are introduced by both laboratory and didactic components. In the fall, the student is familiarized with static and dynamic occlusion, the dental articulator, and functional waxing. Simultaneous with clinical activities in Dentistry II during the winter quarter, related laboratory activities of diagnostic articulator mounting with an arbitrary facebow are presented. Concluding in the spring quarter, static and dynamic concepts of occlusion are applied to occlusal equilibration. Department of Restorative Dentistry
