Emerging trends in orthodontic diagnosis, treatment planning and treatment sequencing
ABSTRACT
Recent advances in diagnostic technology and treatment mechanics have resulted in ever increasing levels of well-conceived efficient, and customized care; while simultaneously increasing the challenge of designing a treatment plan appropriate for each individual patient. Accurate diagnosis is a key element in the design of any successful treatment plan.
This course deals with a well-organized approach to diagnosis, treatment planning, various methods and principles involved in anchorage control, and precise positioning of various orthodontic attachments as a strong foundation for efficient treatment mechanics.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Participants will be able to:
Obtain high quality orthodontic records and carry out systematic clinical assessment of a patient.
Process relevant patient information, and analyze various diagnostic records
Establish standardized protocol for accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, sequencing and execution.
