A two-day functional occlusion seminar on demand — Stephen Phelan on records, risk and complex wear
Occlusion stays mysterious for many dentists long after graduation. Functional Occlusion Online Course by Dr. Stephen Phelan is the full recording of his two-day seminar, nearly twelve hours across nine videos, taking you from terminology and anterior guidance through bite records, articulator mounting and risk assessment to a six-step system for the complex wear patient.

Inside the course
Foundations that stick
Day one builds the vocabulary and analysis most dentists never fully mastered — anterior guidance options, functional analysis and the bite records that make complex cases mountable and repeatable.
From articulator to risk
You learn recommended articulator settings, a technique your assistant can follow, and a risk-assessment system that flags patients likely to damage restorations.
Treating the worn dentition
Day two moves into planning high-risk wear, a simplified leaf-gauge equilibration, precision restorative records and a six-step approach to rebuilding compromised teeth with provisionals.
