Dental Occlusion Courses UK

Occlusion courses teach how to assess a bite, record centric relation, plan restorative work that lasts and manage tooth wear and temporomandibular disorders. They are the courses dentists most often say they wish they had taken earlier, because occlusion underpins prosthodontics, implants and aesthetic work.

46 courses listed, including 40 currently bookable or enquiry-ready

What to check before booking

  • Whether the course is theory only or includes hands-on articulator and splint work.
  • The occlusal philosophy taught and how it applies to everyday restorative cases.
  • Coverage of tooth wear and temporomandibular disorder management.
  • Follow-on modules if you want to progress to full-mouth rehabilitation.

Questions

Occlusion courses, common questions

Why take an occlusion course?

Occlusal problems are behind many failed restorations, fractured porcelain and tooth wear cases. An occlusion course gives you a structured way to examine, record and plan so that restorative and cosmetic work is predictable.

Is occlusion training verifiable CPD?

Under the GDC Enhanced CPD scheme dentists need 100 hours of verifiable CPD in each five-year cycle, with at least 10 hours in any two consecutive years. Check that the provider issues a certificate that states the hours, the learning outcomes and the GDC development outcomes it maps to.

Do occlusion courses cover TMD?

Most include temporomandibular disorder assessment and splint therapy, and some run dedicated TMD modules. Check the learning outcomes on each listing.
