Don’t forget function—partnering occlusion with aligners to deliver long-term stability

This course will emphasise the foundational role of occlusion in aligner therapy and achieving long-term treatment stability.

Designed for general practitioners and newer providers, it will cover how to recognise common signs of occlusal disease, understand the risks of non-treatment and demonstrate how orthodontics can support restorative success.

Learning objectives:

This course aims at teaching learners how to:

1. Recognise occlusal disease and understand the functional risks of not addressing it.
2. Plan comprehensive restorative treatments by integrating orthodontics, digital tools and aesthetic-functional alignment.
3. Achieve and maintain long-term stability through systematic occlusal refinement at treatment completion.
