Description

Diagnosis and solutions for clinical mistakes during orthodontic treatment of compromised cases with Dr. Adith Venugopal – expertise in the management of challenging cases!

 

Compromised cases require specialized approaches to correct jaw position and improve both function and appearance.

 

Within the course, you will learn:


– Protocols for diagnosing and managing mistakes during treatment
– Management of mistakes during space closure
– Diagnosis and treatment planning for compromised cases
– Camouflage treatment protocols for skeletal Class 2 and Class 3
– Treatment protocols for skeletal open bite and skeletal asymmetry
– Treatment protocols for ectopic canines
– Orthodontic retreatment protocols.

 

To become a successful orthodontist, you need to be able to effectively manage challenging and complex cases. 


This course will give you an advanced leap toward mastering these skills and becoming a proficient orthodontist!
