Occlusion is something that is covered in detail throughout all of the PG dentistry training, especially in our Clinical Occlusion and TMD online course. It underpins clinical success. But where can you get the best products?
In the UK, Prestige Dental is the leading supplier. Dominic has worked with them for decades.
They sell the whole range of occlusal materials in one shop including denar articulators. He would buy the basic one – ‘automark’ if starting out. They have semi – and fully – adjustable and fancy articulators but the basic one can work the best for even the most complex jobs. Used with a face bow which you can also buy from Prestige.
They also supply articulator foils, Miller’s forceps, and unique products such as an alternative to a knitted retraction cord. They also sell end cutting saws if you get cement or bond stuck between teeth, and clearance guides if you want to check occlusal clearance.
If you’re getting more advanced they have heating wax knives for sale, which Dominic also uses. They also sell books which Dominic recommends on the PG dentistry courses and you can find the products mentioned in this video here.
