Facebow in FMR: When, Why & How

Overview

Full Mouth Rehabilitation (FMR) requires precision, functional harmony, and a comprehensive understanding of occlusion to achieve long-term restorative success. One of the most important yet often misunderstood components in prosthodontic rehabilitation is the use of the facebow.

IIDR proudly presents an insightful webinar on “Facebow in FMR – When, Why & How” by Dr. Sanjana Agrawal, aimed at helping clinicians understand the practical significance of facebow transfer in restorative dentistry and full mouth rehabilitation procedures.

This lecture will focus on the principles of facebow records and their clinical significance. Furthermore, it will cover indications for use, step-by-step clinical protocols, and articulator transfer concepts. Participants will understand when facebow usage becomes essential and how it contributes to functional occlusion. In addition, the session will discuss practical ways to integrate facebow techniques effectively into everyday clinical practice.

The session will also discuss common mistakes during facebow transfer, practical troubleshooting tips, and simplified workflows to enhance precision in restorative and prosthodontic treatments. Through evidence-based concepts and clinical insights, this webinar aims to bridge the gap between theoretical understanding and practical application.

Whether you are a general dentist, prosthodontist, postgraduate student, or clinician interested in advanced restorative workflows, this webinar will provide valuable guidance for improving treatment accuracy and occlusal predictability in FMR cases.
