Description
Bite registration and treatment planning of complex rehabilitation cases using TENS-Only technique in a neuromuscular dentistry approach!
Neuromuscular dentistry explores the connections among the temporomandibular joints (TMJ), teeth, muscles, and nerves. It aims to establish the jaw's optimal physiological position in rehabilitation cases to achieve predictable results.
During the course with Dr. Fabio Savastano, you will learn in detail about:
– Application of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) appliance in clinical dentistry
– Protocols of TENS-only technique for occlusal analysis and bite registration
– Treatment of orthodontic and prosthodontic cases within a neuromuscular concept.
Lesson 1.Neuromuscular Theory: Habitual and Physiological Rest Position
– Bite registration and bioelectrical instrumentation in neuromuscular dentistry
– Analysis of mandibular movement
– Rest position and centric occlusion
– Application of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) appliance in clinical dentistry
– Determination of physiological rest position
– Defining the neuromuscular theory
– Neuromuscular theory application in clinical dentofacial orthopedics
– Analyzing mandibular muscular relationship.
Recommended for: Functional dentists, General dentists.
Lesson 2.Materials and Methods for Obtaining Physiological Rest Position Using TENS-Only Technique
– Manual protocols for working with the J-5 TENS unit
– Indications for TENS unit application
– Determination of the freeway space and vertical jaw relation using an Aqualizer® appliance
– Step-by-step video demonstration for the application of the TENS-only technique for occlusal analysis and bite registration.
Recommended for: Functional dentists, General dentists.
Lesson 3.Bite Registration in Rest Position and Evaluation of Treatment Options. Video demonstration of the technique
– Protocols for bite registration in the rest position using silicone materials
– Analysis of the sagittal relationship of the registered bite and evaluation of treatment options
– Advantages of bite registration in the rest position for predictable orthodontic and prosthodontic treatment

Recommended for: Functional dentists, General dentists.
Lesson 4.The neuromuscular theory in general dentistry and orthodontics
– The concept of biotensegrity
– Neuromuscular theory
– Differences of the neuromuscular theory applied to general dentistry and orthodontics
– Neurophysiology concepts and kinesiography
– Muscular dysfunction diagnostics
– Neuromuscular orthodontics: treatment objectives
– Relationship between occlusion and head position

Lecturers 1
Medical doctor and orthodontist with extensive teaching experience in the field of Neuromuscular Orthodontics. He received his Medical degree Summa Cum Laude from the University of Naples in 1987 and his specialty degree in Orthodontics and Gnathology from the University of Padua in 1990.
His main focus since 1988 has been the application of the Neuromuscular principals to orthodontics. He developed a unique orthodontic diagnostic and treatment protocol and concieved Neuromuscular Orthodontics as a distinct branch of the orthodontic specialty (1994,Savasystem).
He has lectured in Brazil, Spain, India, Bahrain, UAE, Canada, Czech Republic,Russia,Ukraine, UK and Italy since 1989. He has acquired an extensive experience for complex TMJ pathologies and maxillo-facial surgery as a hospital consultant for 15 years.
Director and adjunct professor for the Masters on Neuromuscular Orthodontics at the Universitat of De Valls, Andorra 2015-2017. Founder and President of ICNOG (International College of Neuromuscular Orthodontics and Gnathology) in 2006.Adjunct professor for the Masters on Neuromuscular Orthodontics at the Universitat Jaume I, Castellon, Spain.
