Dr. Patricia Vergara’s 2-day hands-on course — a highly anticipated event led by one of the most influential experts in contemporary orthodontics, renowned for her precise biomechanical strategies and practical clinical solutions.

The course will take place in April in the beautiful city of Budapest and is designed to expand your clinical skills and deepen your understanding of challenging orthodontic cases.

You will gain practical training and high-level clinical insights on topics such as:

– Diagnosis and treatment planning based on functional occlusion principles
– Biomechanical strategies for the management of deeply impacted canines and other teeth using the author’s protocols
– Step-by-step fabrication and application of customized cantilever anchorage systems
– Biomechanics of intra- and extra-alveolar mini-implants
– Managing complex Class 2 and 3 cases using extra-alveolar anchorage.

Expand your capabilities in orthodontic practice, learn from the best — and let warm, inspiring Istanbul mark the beginning of a new stage in your professional journey!

PROGRAM

Day 1 | THEORETICAL PART

Topic 1: Skeletal anchorage

– Physical characteristics of the mini implants:

- According to the anatomy of the area
- Depending on bone density
- According to biomechanics.

– Design of the system of forces and resulting vectors for the following movements:

- Molar intrusion
- Incisor intrusion
- Molar straightening
- Mass distalization
- Mesialization of molars.

Topic 2: Spheres of orthodontic knowledge

– Identification and management of occlusal planes
– Vertical dimension as the key for the adequate correction of classes 2 and class 3 occlusion
– Elimination of the posterior discrepancy.

Topic 3: Identifying the aea of compensation

– Dentoalveolar
– Vertical
– Articular.

Topic 4: Treatment design and advanced mechanics

– Gummy smile:

- Identification of incisors resistance center and a better selection of the point of force application to obtain better results in the gummy smile
- Identity the difference between when it is a full arc intrusion or intrusion only for anterior tooth,
- Do I intrude with mini implants or with cantilever?

– MLD (Mandibular Lateral Deviation):

- Deepening of MLD. Treatment concepts.

– MARPE efficient mechanics for class 2 treatments:

- Class 2 high angle
- Class 2 low angle
- Change of occlusal planes and mini implants.

– MARPE efficient mechanics for class 3 treatments:

- Class 3 high angles
- Class 3 low angle
- With change of occlusal planes and mini implants.

Day 2 | HANDS-ON SESSION

– Impaction treatment. Author’s protocols, mistakes and solutions
– Biomechanical principles for treating deeply impacted teeth
– Steps for fabricating individualized cantilever anchorage systems
– Application of cantilevers for controlled tooth movement
– Common mistakes and potential complications in the treatment of impacted canines.
