The January-April session of “Orthodontic Mini Residency in Clear Aligner Technique” has begun, with over 50 general dentists and orthodontists participating. Over this 12-week, self-paced professional development course, participants will move from the basics of clear aligner treatment to approaches, tips, and tricks for specific issues and complex cases.

‍

Topics covered during this 30 credit, CE-eligible course from Aligner Resources include:

‍

1. Anterior Open Bite and Crowding: This module covers tips and tricks for resolving a patient’s open bite and spacing issues with clear aligners, instead of braces.

‍

2. Deep Bites, Class II Treatment, and Mandibular Advancement: This module covers how Invisalign clear aligners — in concert with intermaxillary elastics — can effectively align jaws. 

‍

3. Invisalign and Extractions: Several modules cover tips and tricks for approaching extractions as part of a patient’s aligner treatment.

7. TADS and Orthognathic Surgery with Clear Aligners: Participants will learn about multidisciplinary cases that require orthognathic surgery and the placement of TADS in concert with clear aligner treatment.
