Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics conducted a guest lecture on “Occlusal Considerations in Crowns” on 17.10.19 presented by Dr. T. T. Saravanan, Sri Ramachandra Institute of Higher Education & Research. The lecture focused on creating awareness and help appreciate the importance of occlusion. The occlusion of teeth is frequently overlooked or taken for granted in providing restorative dental treatments. This is due to the fact that symptoms of occlusal disease are often hidden from dentists not trained to recognize them or to appreciate their significance. The lecture highlighted the techniques and philosophies of occlusion and insisted that long-term success of restorations are dependent on the maintenance of this occlusal harmony.
