Occlusion in Implant Dentistry

Course Overview

Produced by Osteocom and presented by Dr. Devang Patel, this is described as the complete and definitive course on the fundamentals of occlusion in implant dentistry — a topic of genuine interest to implantologists and general practitioners at every experience level. Rather than treating implants as functionally identical to natural teeth, the course grounds occlusal planning in the real biological and biomechanical differences between the two.

The curriculum covers occlusal load principles from single implant-supported crowns through to full-arch implant-supported prostheses, and works through the biological implications of occlusal overload on implants specifically. Several how-to videos demonstrate full occlusal assessment and occlusal scheme planning for a range of implant case types, giving viewers a genuinely practical, applied understanding rather than only theory.

Across 7 videos and 3 hours 22 minutes of content, the course is designed so practitioners can confidently plan occlusal schemes for implant restorations across the full range of clinical scenarios.
