The IADI Orthodontics Fellowship will teach you to look at the big picture where YOU will treat orthodontic patients with focus on Airway and minimizing metal wires.
General dentists can perform orthodontic treatments. In this one year externship program, we will teach simpler straight wire concepts. In fact, when combining minimally invasive periodontal surgery (Wilckodontics), the teeth move much faster with less relapse. In this course, the attendees will have the opportunity to treat patients and understand the missing links in orthodontics. This Course is especially important for implantologists because most implant cases involve extrusion of opposing teeth or mesial drift of adjacent teeth into edentulous areas. Dr. Samuel Lee will teach several techniques to overcome these issues with orthodontics.
