Dr. Frank Spear knows that dentists can only treat what they see, and they only see what they have been taught to see. This means most dentists feel confident at treatment planning a tooth in a patient with no tooth wear, no occlusal issues and reasonable alignment of the teeth. But what about patients who present with tooth wear and aberrant anterior occlusal relationships, such as end-to-end occlusions or deep overbites?

Dr. Spear’s presentation provides a systematic approach, “Facially Generated Treatment Planning,” which aids in diagnosing, treatment planning and treating these challenging relationships to achieve an esthetic and functionally acceptable outcome.
