The day includes a live patient workup for taking a K7 Neuromuscular Bite, offering you a real-world application of the course material. You’ll also learn how to communicate effectively with the lab to eliminate common problems and pitfalls, ensuring a good fitting and functional orthotic.
Mastering Orthotic Delivery & Adjustments
Day 2 focuses on the proper techniques for coronoplasty of a Neuromuscular Orthotic. You’ll learn the principles for a physiologic occlusion and how to manage functional excursion. The day includes a demonstration where the orthotic made on Day 1 is delivered, showing proper coronoplasty techniques. You’ll also explore the use of EMG to identify first-tooth contact prematurity, timing, and occlusal balance. This comprehensive training ensures that you leave the course with the skills and knowledge to successfully treat TMD patients in your practice.
