SUMMARY:C346 - Sassouni Plus Cephalometric Analysis - Day 2
DESCRIPTION:This course will include detailed instruction on Sassouni analysis. Also\, additional measurements are included which define growth tendencies extremely well. This course will provide an excellent working knowledge of Sassouni as well as key measurements derived from other analyses that can be used to support growth predictions and provide additional essential information not gathered from the Sassouni Archial portion of the analysis. \n\n\n\nAfter the completion of this course attendees will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nTrace a headplate using the Sassouni technique\n\n\n\nUtilize the tracings to assist in growth and treatment response predictions

SUMMARY:C302 - USDI Contemporary Cephalometric Analysis
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTOR: Dr. Viet Ngheim \n\n\n\n\n\nThis is a Cephalometric course which includes a detailed evaluation of the definitions of landmarks\, tracing of head plates\, and a review of Steiner and the USDI’s systems of analysis. A brief history of cephalometrics\, structures of the skull and landmarks will also be discussed.  Constructing the USDI analysis and the measurements needed will be examined. Model analysis which is the first and foremost adjunct to Cephalometrics will also be reviewed.  Measurements are performed on models of each case to determine the Arch Form\, Arch Width and Arch Depth.  The arch form is assessed as Roman (IDEAL)\, Gothic or Truncated.  The arch width and the arch depth is then measured.  Each value is compared to IDEAL for an individual patient using the appropriate forms to compile the information.  These are the first steps in the DIAGNOSIS of a case. \n\n\n\nAfter the completion of this course the Participant will understand: \n\n\n\nThe importance of cephalometrics analysisBasic Orthodontic cephalometrics classifications and definitionsModel analysis\, Arch Form\, Arch Width and Arch Depth definitions and measurements

SUMMARY:D319 - Retention & Finishing of Cases
DESCRIPTION:This course will cover the retention and finishing stages of treatment. One of the most rewarding achievements in orthodontics is the ability to finish a case to the satisfaction of both the practitioner and the patient Achieving this goal can sometimes be elusive for both experienced and inexperienced practitioners. The participants will learn the fixed appliance discipline required to achieve outstanding finishing results as well a variety of retention protocols.The two primary goals of this course are:• To help Doctors develop the expertise that is necessary to diagnose\, treatment plan\, and then establish efficient mechanics case finishing.• To give Doctors a solid understanding on retention theory and how to set up a solid retention protocol in their practice.An overview of basic diagnosis and treatment planning will also be presented since these are the building blocks of effective case finishing.

SUMMARY:T348 - The Diagnosis and Effective Treatment of TMJ Dysfunction
DESCRIPTION:The major cause of almost all TMJ dysfunction is an over closed vertical dimension causing excess pressure in the TMJ fossae when the teeth are in occlusion. This is usually due to the inadequate eruption of the lower posterior teeth.This course will examine effective TMJ diagnosis and TMJ treatment protocol. These treatment techniques will allow the rapid relief of TMJ symptoms within 6-8 weeks and usually a permanent relief of the entire TMJ problem within 4 to 12 months.This method of treating TMJ dysfunction works no matter how long the patient has had a TMJ dysfunction problem or how many previous splints they have had.Both the Diagnostic and Treatment method will be discussed in detail including determining proper mandibular position\, splint construction\, and the important patient instructions that must be followed exactly as given!

SUMMARY:AC102 - Straight Wire Mechanics: Hands-on Technique - DAY 2
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTORS: Dr. Jim Prittinen / Dr. Barry Winnick \n\n\n\nThe Basic Mechanic Series of courses includes hands-on bracket bonding to a typodont and the proper sequence placement of various arch wires. The size and alloy differences between round\, rectangular\, and square arch wires will be discussed as well as auxiliary attachments and power units. A Class I crowded case will be completed on a wax articulator to mimic real life tooth movement and provide hands-on experience. A hot water bath similar to those used in post-graduate orthodontic programs will be used to simulate tooth movement.

SUMMARY:D406 - Orthodontic Diagnosis - Start to Finish
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTOR: Dr. Jim Prittinen \n\n\n\nThis course will discuss angle of wire entry and how an understanding of this concept will greatly increase the efficiency of your orthodontic treatment. Following that discussion\, we will explore how to handle some very challenging open bites cases\, canted occlusal planes\, and midline discrepancies. This will be followed by a short presentation on how to do IPR and the rationale behind distal offsets. We will end the courses with a presentation on battling relapse. Retention strategies based upon not only the original malocclusion\, but also the severity of the malocclusion will be emphasized.The first topic to be discussed is muscle strength\, particularly how a patient’s muscle strength influences every decision made during treatment. That will be followed by a presentation of a collection of basic cephalometric measurements that are often use to both formulate and supplement the orthodontic diagnosis of a particular case.Following the discussion on cephalometrics\, we will explore the topic of visualization of treatment results and how this technique is used to formulate a treatment plan. This discussion will include a look at cases that could be treated in a variety of ways. Advantages and disadvantages to various treatment plans will be presented for each of these cases.
