Contemporary Orthodontic
Treatment of Class I, Class II and Class III Malocclusions
Course Program
Advances in scientific study and technological development allow new options in treating common orthodontic situations.
More than ever, the clinical approach can be customized to each patient’s needs, while it simultaneously enhances
clinical efficiency for the doctor. This course will explore the state of the art in two critical aspects of orthodontic
treatment: appliance selection and accurate bonding.
Appliance Selection
This section will explore the concept of Variable Prescription Orthodontics in bracket selection, using straight forward
determinations to apply the necessary torque to each individual patient's needs instead of using one set of torques for all
cases. This section will also review the clinical considerations of planning and modifying a wire sequence in extraction
and non-extraction cases, and the impact of new technology in ligated and self-ligating systems.
Accurate Bonding
Along with the torque values built into the brackets, the other factor that can influence the accuracy of tooth movement is
the placement of the brackets on the teeth. This section will review bracket placement information for management of
deep bite and open bite cases, factors to include when deciding on tooth placement, and a process of indirect bonding
that has a record of consistent and accurate results.
