The AACD is proud to present our newest course on AACD CEntral: “When and How to Treat Loss of Vertical Dimension” with Dr. Richard Coates.

In this on‑demand offering, Dr. Coates explores clinical situations where patients have lost occlusal vertical dimension and presents two effective approaches to address these challenges. You’ll discover how to improve esthetics and occlusal relationships by restoring vertical dimension in a thoughtful and clinically sound way.

You'll learn how to:

• Assess when vertical dimension has been compromised, and choose the appropriate restorative approach

• Apply techniques to successfully rebuild esthetics compromised by tooth loss or altered occlusion

• Select between the two presented treatment strategies based on patient‑specific need
