ONE PROTOCOL FITS ALL?
Rethinking Overdentures as an Alternative Treatment Option for Complete Edentulism.
Forum for Restorative & Multidisciplinary Education

dentistry,
reframed.
A forum built on one conviction — the best clinical outcomes happen when disciplines stop working in isolation.
Dentistry is a team sport.
FRAME was founded to close that gap — a forum where clinicians from every discipline learn the same language, plan the same cases, and raise the standard together rather than apart.

About
Our
Our
Approach
The best treatment plans are rarely created by one clinician alone.
FRAME is built on the idea that better conversations lead to better dentistry. By bringing general dentists and specialists together, we create opportunities to share different perspectives, discuss real cases, and learn from one another.
Whether through in-person events, hands-on sessions, or online education, every FRAME program is designed to strengthen interdisciplinary treatment planning and support evidence-based clinical decision making.
Our
Structure
Designed to support continuous interdisciplinary learning.
In-Person events
Collaborative case discussions focused on real treatment planning.
Visiting speaker series
Live online sessions led by national and international clinicians, focused on multidisciplinary case discussion.
hands-on sessions
Practical, small-group clinical training sessions.
