In this DVD lecture Dr. Okeson presents a general overview of the use of occlusal appliances in the field of
dentistry. He takes the many different types of appliances and categorizes them according to their proposed
uses. He discusses the indications and contraindications for each. He then reviews the scientific evidence that
exists to support their uses. In many instances, only anecdotal evidence exists, placing a great burden on the
clinician to provide appropriate treatment. Dr. Okeson goes on to show many clinical cases that demonstrate
the potential adverse effects that may occur with some appliances. The clinician must be aware of these
undesirable effects in order to avoid them.
