Slavicek Concept: Integrating Digital and Analog Protocols in Functional Dentistry

For the first time in New York, this exclusive seminar introduces dental professionals to the innovative Slavicek Concept 4.0—where time-tested analog principles meet advanced digital workflows! 

The Slavicek Concept is a comprehensive approach to functional dentistry that focuses on diagnosing and treating patients based on the relationship between occlusion, jaw function, and the entire masticatory system.

The concept continues to evolve through the integration of modern digital technologies and is being adapted to meet the demands of contemporary clinical practice.

Gain a deep understanding of functional diagnostics, occlusion, and treatment planning within a modern, fully integrated approach. This course is designed to bridge the gap between traditional techniques and digital dentistry, helping you achieve greater precision, efficiency, and predictable patient outcomes.

During this course, you will learn in detaisl about: 

– Clinical functional analysis, including instrumental diagnostics and patient examination protocols
– Fundamentals of condylography
– Digital impressions, data acquisition, and virtual articulators
– CAD/CAM applications in functional dentistry
– Function-driven treatment planning and step-by-step case strategies
– Principles of occlusal rehabilitation and vertical dimension management
– Splint therapy and clinical protocols for splint adjustment.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience a globally recognized concept, now brought to New York for the very first time!
Elevate your clinical skills and expand your perspective with a forward-thinking approach to functional dentistry.
