Safe and Predictable Treatment of Worn Dentition, Bruxism, and TMJ Disorders. Hands-On Course by Camillo D’Arcangelo

Stop guessing. Stop overtreating. Start treating tooth wear, bruxism, and TMJ disorders with absolute control, biological respect, and long-term predictability.

This hands-on course is designed for clinicians who want clarity instead of confusion, stability instead of failure, and clinically minimally invasive solutions instead of aggressive dentistry.

Under the guidance of Professor Camillo D’Arcangelo, you will learn a structured, clinically proven system to diagnose and treat worn dentition, bruxism, and TMJ disorders safely—step by step, and with full control of occlusion and vertical dimension.

What makes this traning unique?

This is not another occlusion lecture. This is a complete diagnostic-to-therapy system built on the E.F.P. (Esthetics. Function. Posture.) approach developed by Camillo D’Arcangelo and his colleague Lorenzo Vanini, allowing you to:
 

— Precisely differentiate parafunctional vs. dysfunctional patients
— Manage vertical dimension without risk
— Test, stabilize, and control occlusion before irreversible treatment
— Treat complex TMJ patients without guesswork
— Replace destructive resective protocols with additive, reversible, and predictable solutions. 

This course is clinically immersive and practice-oriented. Participants will personally perform:

— Safe OVD incrementation
— Registration of the new mandibular position
— Stabilization of the new occlusal position using E.F.P. FIXED BITES
— Cementation of E.F.P. FIXED BITES
— Relining of E.F.P. FIXED BITES with composite materials.

You will not only understand what to do—you will know why, when, and how to do it safely.
