Description
To extract or not to extract, that is the question. And we have prepared a comprehensive answer!
Analysis from A to Z of extraction methods in orthodontic treatment, selection thinking strategies and clinical cases. With the new course you will learn:
– biomechanics of treatment with extraction
– protocols for serial tooth extraction and germectomy in mixed dentition
– protocol for the treatment of Class 2 with extraction
– aligner therapy with extraction
– features of the use of transpalatal arches (TPA) and their modifications
– lingual orthodontic protocols for space closure.
We invite you to study and close this issue, based on the most modern research and protocols!
