SUMMARY:D660 - Diagnostics & Treatment Planning - Special Emphasis on Vertical Consideration
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTOR: Dr Jim Prittinen \n\n\n\nThis course highlights the importance of vertical control in orthodontic therapy. Learn how to diagnose potential vertical difficulties by viewing cephs\, models\, and photographs. Case selection based on the potential vertical challenges will be covered in detail. Different treatment mechanics for deep bite and open bite cases will also be discussed.Treatment planning with an emphasis on goal setting constitutes a major portion of this course. Learn methods to discern which goals are important. Also\, a method for determining the ideal anterior-posterior position of upper and lower incisors will be demonstrated.Bjork’s interpretation of growth and development will be reviewed in detail. The course will demonstrate why an understanding of growth and development is essential for accurate diagnosis\, treatment planning and long-term Orthodontic success.Upon completion of this course the participant will understand: \n\n\n\n\nThe importance of vertical control during Orthodontic treatment\n\n\n\nHow to select the appropriate cases to treat related to vertical dimension challenges\n\n\n\nThe ideal anterior-posterior position of upper and lower incisors\n\n\n\nHow growth and development impacts accurate diagnosis and treatment planning

SUMMARY:CA400 - Treating Complex Orthodontic Cases with Clear Aligners
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTOR:  \n\n\n\nThis advanced course is designed to equip clinicians with the skills and confidence to treat complex orthodontic cases using clear aligner therapy. Emphasis is placed on accurate diagnosis\, appropriate case selection\, sound biomechanical planning\, and the strategic use of auxiliaries to expand the capabilities of aligners beyond routine cases.Class II malocclusions represent one of the most common scenarios in which clear aligner treatment becomes challenging\, often due to increased tray numbers and patient compliance concerns. Clinical evidence will be presented demonstrating that addressing the AP discrepancy at the beginning of treatment (when patient compliance is typically highest) results in greater efficiency\, reduced treatment time\, and improved long-term stability.Participants will learn practical\, clinically applicable protocols for managing challenging malocclusions while improving predictability\, efficiency\, and overall treatment outcomes.Upon completion of this course\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nEvaluate and diagnose complex orthodontic cases\, including Class II malocclusions\, to determine appropriate treatment options using clear aligner and hybrid approaches.\n\n\n\nDevelop clear aligner treatment plans that incorporate biomechanical principles and the use of auxiliaries to improve treatment efficiency and predictability in complex cases.\n\n\n\nApply protocols for early anteroposterior correction to reduce overall treatment time\, enhance patient compliance\, and improve long-term treatment stability.\n\n\n\nAssess treatment progress and manage complications commonly encountered in complex clear aligner cases\, including tracking issues and extended treatment duration.
