Here’s an interesting article written for Dentistry Today last year (2010). It presents the three golden rules of occlusion – rules that are accepted by all parties whatever their particular occlusal slant may be. This is a great article for anyone wanting to cut through the confusion and establish a basic understanding of occlusion; an understanding that they can start putting into practice almost immediately.

I’ve really enjoyed meeting and talking with BiteFX customers over the last year as I’ve never worked with a product that is so universally appreciated and enjoyed by its customer base. It’s easy to use and clearly fills a need helping patients understand complicated occlusal concepts. However, it has also surprised me how few people are using a BiteFX feature that takes seconds to learn but can save hours each year PLUS it totally removes the chance of you stumbling while you try to find your next animation.
