Functional Approach in Multidisciplinary Treatment (Occlusal Dysfunction) - Dentistry eBooks

Course Overview

Presented by Dr. Alessandro Nanussi, this course tackles occlusal dysfunction as a genuinely multidisciplinary problem rather than a single-specialty concern. It presents a protocol for managing occlusal load effectively in both prosthodontic cases and patients with existing dysfunction, built around an integrated four-step functional approach.

The curriculum covers TMJ health and muscular patterns as diagnostic starting points, along with static intercuspidation and how it relates to functional loading. Splint therapy using resin is covered as a practical intervention, and the course gives specific attention to the relationship between body posture and occlusion — a connection that's often overlooked in purely dental-focused occlusal training.

Across 6 videos and 5 hours 40 minutes of content, the course is designed to give practitioners a structured, repeatable protocol for occlusal load management that connects prosthodontic decisions to broader musculoskeletal function.
