Intro to Treating Adolescent and Teen Patients

 

Treating our younger patients with Invisalign is sometimes avoided due to concerns of the doctor of treating a growing patient. In this webinar, we will try to demystify the 9 to 15 year old demographic and make it possible for you to begin treating simple cases of this group tomorrow.

This webinar will provide the viewer with an introduction to treating patients as young as nine with Invisalign. Phase 1 and phase 2 treatment strategies will be presented. We will also introduce the use of simple fixed and removable functional appliances to prepare the arches for more predictable clear aligner treatment. Treating our younger patients uses the same skills you have used with your adult patients and it is tremendously rewarding to watch a child blossom when they are no longer embarrassed to smile.


Course objective:

  • Concerns of treating a growing patient will be discussed.

  • Treatment of Class II occlusions using distalizing and Mandibular Advancement techniques will also be included.
