Fundamentals of Orthodontics for the General Practitioner

Dr. Jaimee Morgan and Dr. Stan Presley hosted a two-day hands-on orthodontics course on June 22nd and 23rd, 2018. The course was an introduction to straight wire orthodontics and minor tooth movements with clear aligners. The course reviewed basic orthodontic treatment planning including proper diagnosing and

how to obtain accurate orthodontic dental records. Participants also learned how to execute the treatment process and appliance fabrication.

As more adult patients are increasing interested in pursuing orthodontics in a general setting, this course offered a great foundation to developing an orthodontic patient base in a general practice.
