Stop referring out the cases that change a practice.
Four days in Melbourne with Dr Łukasz Lassmann. Learn to diagnose TMD and occlusion predictably, spot the red flags that wreck full-mouth cases, and rebuild a worn dentition from first interview to final cementation.
The worn-dentition patient walks in. You already know where this goes.
You restore single crowns and veneers without a second thought. But a full-mouth rehab with a clicking joint and a collapsed bite is a different animal, and the cost of getting it wrong is measured in tens of thousands. So the case gets referred out, or worse, started without the diagnosis to back it.
Raising the bite blind
You know the vertical dimension needs to open. What you don't have is a repeatable, defensible method to do it predictably, so you guess, and hope it holds.
The TMD you can't read
Clicking, locking, muscle pain, referred pain. Without a diagnostic framework you can't tell joint from muscle, adapted from active, or what is safe to restore.
A bite you can't capture
Centric relation, leaf gauge, deprogrammer, equilibration. The bite registration and occlusion in a full-mouth case is where most rehabs quietly fail.
The $30–50k mistake
The real fear: committing to a full-arch reconstruction, missing an occlusal red flag, and watching a five-figure case come apart in your chair.
There is a method to all of it. This is the course where you learn it, from the clinician who wrote the book on it.
Two dentists walk into this room.
You restore well, but rehabs scare you.
Confident with crowns and veneers, but full-mouth reconstruction and TMD cases get referred out or avoided entirely. You want to keep these cases and do them safely.
You've started, and you want certainty.
Already taking on rehabs but still early in the journey. You want the advanced diagnostic skill and the repeatable protocols to do them with real confidence.
Who it isn't for
If you're looking for a weekend of slides with no hands-on, or you don't intend to take occlusion and TMD seriously in your practice, this isn't your course. The hands-on cohort is capped at 20 for a reason.
Walk out diagnosing what you used to refer.
Diagnose predictably
Read TMD and occlusal disorders with a structured framework. Tell joint from muscle, active from adapted, and know exactly what is safe to restore.
Spot the red flags
Identify the occlusal and functional warning signs before you commit, so a five-figure case never comes apart because of something you missed.
Perform the rehab
Run a full-mouth reconstruction end to end: VDO, bite registration, deprogramming, smile design, preparation, cementation and equilibration.
Two days of theory. Two days with your hands on.
Days 1 and 2 build the diagnostic and decision-making framework. Days 3 and 4 are pure hands-on, capped at 20 seats, working leaf gauges, deprogrammers, facescans and equilibration until the protocol is yours.

What the full program includes.
The full four-day program bundles the conference, the hands-on workshops, the pre-course webinars and online courses, the booklet and the complete clinical toolkit.
One full-mouth case pays for the course three times over.
A single full-mouth reconstruction case bills $20,000 at the conservative end in Australia. Against a $6,500 full-program fee, the course is paid off well before the case is finished. Run your own numbers below.

The honest questions.
Yes. The two-day Conference Only format at $2,500 ex GST gives you the full diagnostic and decision-making framework. The hands-on workshop days, the webinars and the online courses are part of the four-day Full Program.
Because deprogrammers, leaf gauges, facescans and equilibration only stick when you do them under direct supervision. Twenty seats is the limit at which Dr Lassmann can get to every attendee at the bench. When they're gone, they're gone.
No. The second tier of attendee is exactly the dentist already taking on reconstructions who wants advanced diagnostic skill and repeatable protocols. The VDO red flags, deprogramming decisions and equilibration content are aimed squarely at raising confidence on harder cases.
Full-program attendees get four pre-recorded webinars that open two months before and stay open one month after, plus two complete online courses. They level the room so live time is spent on what matters.
Yes. Groups of three or more receive 10% off the hands-on workshop. Get in touch with your group's names before you check out and we'll apply it.
Yes. Dr Lassmann's new Quintessence textbook on Full Mouth Rehabilitation can be added to your registration for $500, including an in-person signing at the course.
