About the course
In-Depth Training on Full Mouth Reconstruction
This course represents the most comprehensive training available globally on Full Mouth Reconstruction. It spans an extensive array of topics, from Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) and Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) to advanced smile design, physiotherapy interventions, and vertical dimension of occlusion. The curriculum incorporates the SDS concept, treatment of toothier in new Vertical Occlusal Dimension, the use of deprogrammers, and principles of centric relation. Advanced digital dentistry techniques such as scanning, axiography, and the use of digital tools are integral parts of the training. Additionally, participants will learn about cementation processes and the art of occlusal equilibration. This training is unique in its depth and breadth, ensuring that practitioners are well-equipped to handle full mouth reconstructions with a holistic and integrated approach.
Extensive Practical Workshops:
- Advanced Bite Registration Techniques: Learn to register the bite for night guards and mandibular advancement devices during the preparation phase. Gain proficiency in DFA facebow registration, leaf gauge bite registration, lucia jig, Kois deprogrammer, and Dawson manipulation. Each session is designed to enhance your skills in precise bite registration and adjustment.
- Bite Equilibration and TMJ Assessment: Discover the secrets of effective bite equilibration and personally perform these adjustments on specially prepared models. Additionally, learn how to conduct thorough examinations of the masticatory muscles and temporomandibular joints, crucial for diagnosing and planning treatment.
- Digital Dentistry Tools: Master the use of cutting-edge digital tools with workshops focused on dental scanning, T-scan, and jaw mobility assessments using Modjaw. These tools are essential for modern dental practices aiming to enhance diagnostic accuracy and treatment outcomes.

What is the difference between the "Reservation" and "Full Payment" options?
The deposit option allows you to secure your spot on the course with a smaller initial payment and arrange the remaining balance at a later date. You don’t have to pay the full amount upfront. Both the deposit and the full payment equally guarantee your seat on the course.
Why is there a difference between EU and NON-EU payments?
The EU price applies to individuals or clinics registered within the European Union, allowing them to benefit from the EU VAT exemption (where applicable). The NON-EU price is for doctors and practitioners from outside the European Union, where the EU VAT exemption cannot be applied, according to European Union law.
If you don’t know which rate applies to you, send us an inquiry at question@dentalclass.pl with your VAT ID.
