Course/Module description:
The students will imply the theoretical aspecst of occlusion in practice on patients
Course/Module aims:
To conduct a clinical occlusal analysis integrated with the theoretical knowledge of occlusion
Learning outcomes - On successful completion of this module, students should be able to:
to take impressions with irreversible hydrocoloid material (alginate),occlusal registration with a facebow, cast the impressions with plaster and mount them on an articulator.
to Perform a complete occlusal examination
•to Analyze the different aspects of the ideal occlusion and various deviations.
•to Describe and classify different pathologies of occlusion.

•Occlusal trauma,
•TMD,
•Malocclusions.
Clinic:
