Course Overview

This course will teach you to take a broader look at already existing familiar approaches to orthodontic treatment of children and adolescents.

In a course of 9 online lessons you will learn:

  • Step-by-step protocols for maxillary expansion
  • Treatment of open bite in mixed dentition
  • The use of functional appliances for the treatment of skeletal class 2
  • The use of braces for the treatment of class 2 (II subclass)
  • Using mini-implants to treat young patients
  • Using the 2*4 technique in children
  • Detailed protocol for early treatment of impacted teeth
  • Using facial skeletal growth prediction.

Recommended for: Orthodontists seeking to broaden their perspective on contemporary and evidence-based approaches to treating children and adolescents.
