TP Orthodontics Satellite Symposium
Date: Sunday, February 7, 2009
Time:12:45 pm
Speaker:

Patient Based Orthodontics: a different approach to orthodontic treatment of skeletal malocclusions.
What is the excellence and where are our new limits?

Too many times, surgical treatment has been considered the only excellent approach to the treatment of skeletal malocclusions. But, is this true? What do our patients think about it? Is there an objective limit for a surgical or non-surgical treatment? New techniques have increased the possibilities of non-surgical treatment in these cases like we never thought. However, different biomechanics are applied. Correct management of some of these specific biomechanical principles, in addition to finishing tricks and multidisciplinary details are the keys for achieving brilliant results.
