Course
Advanced Orthodontic Therapy
Some cases are best treated with either mid-arch or terminal-arch extractions. This seminar will provide you with detailed mechanics for both extraction techniques. The use of ALF appliances in conjunction with Delta Force makes all extraction cases safe and easy to treat.
In addition, you will learn how to treat impacted cuspids and impacted second molars. There is a section devoted to advanced case finishing.
Best of all you have the opportunity to practice the various procedures on your own typodont under expert guidance. It is a fantastic chance to educate your staff!
You will learn:
- The use of the Sliding Yoke, the Class Bow, and other advanced auxiliary attachments.
- Hands on Typodont experience using all the auxiliary attachments.
- How to treat mid-arch and terminal arch extraction cases.
- The use of Light Wire appliances like the ALF & RN-Sagittal.

As you can see from the Typodont Exercises below, there is something there for everyone, covering nearly every scenario you will come across when practicing fixed orthodontic therapy. Typodonts with bands and brackets are furnished Day 2 would also be an ideal opportunity to bring one or more of your auxiliaries, as trained Orthodontic nurses will demonstrate how they can be of enormous use to yourselves when bonding up patients. They will also learn how to do basic orthopaedic repairs.
You are also encouraged to bring to the course two cases with study models, cephalometrics, panarex and pictures, plus any on-going cases on which you would like Dr Truitt’s opinion.
