Functional Occlusion for Dental Students

Dr David Maddy from the University of Louisville School of Dentistry, in conjunction with the Dawson Academy, has created a dental school lecture curriculum titled "Functional Occlusion and Advanced Restorative Concepts for Dental Students".  The content is based mostly from Dr Peter Dawson's textbook titled "Functional Occlusion: From TMJ to Smile Design". The lecture series also features animations created by BiteFX (bitefx.com) to illustrate through videos otherwise difficult concepts to conceptualize.  The series is designed for academic and clinical teaching for a second year dental student. Dr John Cranham has also contributed by creating 5 supplemental lectures that were designed to accentuate from a clinical perspective.

It is best to watch the videos in the order as they are listed. Dr Cranham designed his lecture content to supplement Dr Maddy's lectures to support the topics from a clinical perspective.
