This three day concentrated course is designed for general dentists who
have a sincere interest in orthodontics and would like to clearly

long as the clinician chooses to be involved”.

- Basic orthodontic arch-wire bending and placement (hands-on
experience with typodonts for each participant)
- Basic orthodontic band and bracket placement
- Basic use of orthodontic force systems
- Orthodontic pliers-names and uses
- Identifying “simple” and “complex”
orthodontic cases to assist in the decision of cases to treat and cases
to refer
- Gathering high quality records
- Basic case diagnosis, prognosis & treatment planning
- Basic orthodontic troubleshooting
- Basic orthodontic finishing and detailing
- Basic orthodontic retainer design and placement
