01 | About the Course & Clinical Overview

Prescribing a night guard is easy. Designing, delivering, and adjusting it correctly requires clinical understanding.

This one-day practical course takes you through the complete clinical workflow of full-coverage stabilization splints — from patient assessment and case selection to splint design, delivery, occlusal adjustment, and follow-up.

Combining essential theory, clinical demonstrations, and hands-on training, the course focuses on practical decisions that dentists face in everyday practice.

The goal is not simply to fabricate a night guard, but to understand when, why, and how to use it appropriately.
