Description

Explores the interconnection between posture, temporomandibular joint function, and occlusion through an osteopathic approach — the mouth–body connection — with Silverio Di Rocca!

You will gain a deep understanding of how neuromuscular dynamics influence the vertical dimension, mandibular position, and overall postural harmony.

During the course, you will learn about:
 

— The concept of neuromuscular postural vertical dimension and its clinical relevance
— The relationship between the TMJ, occlusion, and postural balance
— Postural centric relation and mandibular reprogramming protocols
— Functional occlusion principles and their role in global body alignment
— Diagnostic tools and posturometric analysis for objective evaluation
— Clinical applications and treatment planning based on neuromuscular and postural integration.

Lesson 1.Neuromuscular Postural Vertical Dimension and Functional Occlusion

— Concept of neuromuscular postural vertical dimension
— Concept of anatomical vertical dimension
— Relationship between vertical dimension and postural balance
— Neuromuscular determinants of mandibular position
— Postural centric relation
— Physiological parameters influencing occlusion
— Postural functional occlusion
— Integration of anatomical and functional concepts in clinical practice
— Clinical implications for diagnosis and treatment planning
— Practical strategies to achieve functional and postural harmony.

Lesson 2.Neuromuscular Postural Vertical Dimension

— Progressive mandibular reprogramming
— Functional determination of the vertical dimension
— Neuromuscular postural vertical dimension
— Anatomical versus functional vertical dimension
— Postural myofunctional reprogrammer and its clinical applications
— Micro functional planes for occlusal fine-tuning
— Registration and scientific validation of postural vertical dimension
— The use of the posturometer for verification
— Treatment projection and diagnostic planning
— Diagnostic wax-up and articulator mounting.

Lesson 3.Postural Functional Occlusion

— Key characteristics of functional and postural occlusion
— Construction of a physiological occlusal plane
— Functional guides and their protective role for the TMJ
— Occlusion and disocclusion design for balanced function.

Lesson 4.Postural Centric Relation

— Mandibular posture in postural balance
— Relationship between the mandible and body posture
— Postural tonic system and neuromuscular regulation
— Physiology and role of the temporomandibular joint
— Methods to achieve postural centric relation
— Mandibular deprogramming protocols
— Postural equilibrium and body alignment correction
— Application of the body equilibrium device (B.E.D.)
— Registration of functional free space
— The use of the posturometer for postural verification.

Lesson 5.Integrating Neuromuscular Concepts and Posturometry

— The posturometric control system
— Summary of key neuromuscular and postural concepts
— Integration of anatomical, functional, and clinical knowledge
— Importance of an interdisciplinary approach to postural rehabilitation
— Practical implementation of concepts in daily clinical practice.

Lesson 6.Clinical Applications of Neuromuscular and Postural Concepts

— Presentation of real clinical cases
— Diagnostic process and functional assessment
— Application of neuromuscular and postural principles
— Treatment execution and postural stabilization outcomes.
