OCCLUDY is a concept teaching platform I started to develop in 2015 and has evolved slowly over the past ten years as it is not a simple quick tutorial but a master teaching platform like no other being developed in 4K video format.

Time has gone by quickly and the past year 2025 has seen thousands of video frames being rendered twenty for hours a day to take us deep into skeletal geometric associations to teach how skeletal geometry is linked to function, aesthetics and ceramic techniques to recreate the lost geometry we need to understand related to occlusion. There is no better time than now to do this as digital technology and the association to Smile Design as we are moving towards dental engineering.

Now at last the introduction video to OCCLUDY is now being composited this year 2026 but work on this project remains slow as we have setup a laboratory in Las Vegas. The image above is the result of CUMA made possible by Collective Understanding and Mutual Aid between Prof. Paul Tipton - Tipton Training and myself. A fourteen year association. This case was six veneers that where almost an impossible challenge. But like minds can achieve the impossible. Try it, its fun. Something now lacking in dentistry for many as dental laboratories are becoming commodity base production.
