Description
Raffaele Spena online course consists of 6 webinars, during which you will learn:
– The possibilities of the active self-ligating appliance
– The rationale for alveolar corticotomy: detailed protocol
– Non-extraction and extraction treatment of Class 2
– The ectopic teeth: impaction, transpositions, and transmigrations.
The doctor will review the most important aspects of treatment:
– Diagnostics and differential diagnostics
– Step-by-step planning
– Devices and methods of their use
– Finishing stages of treatment.
