Multiloop Edgewise Archwire (MEAW): Treatment Protocols. Kim Jeong-Il's Seminar + Demonstration Masterclass. "VIP" option

The Multiloop Edgewise Archwire (MEAW) technique is not simply a set of orthodontic wire bends, but a systematic approach to managing occlusion and biomechanics in the treatment of complex clinical cases.

MEAW protocols allow for control of the occlusal plane, vertical and sagittal parameters, as well as tooth movement in all three planes of space. The technique is used in the treatment of open bite, deep bite, Class II and Class III malocclusions, as well as for the correction of midline deviation.

Kim Jeong-Il’s seminar provides an opportunity to gain an in-depth understanding of the biomechanics behind the MEAW technique, its diagnostic and treatment-planning principles, and its practical application in a range of clinical situations. Participants will work through clinical cases step by step, gaining a clear understanding of the clinical decision-making process and the principles of MEAW activation.

Lecturer — Kim Jeong Il, an internationally recognised expert in the MEAW technique.

Key Seminar Topics:

— Analysis of the occlusal plane and diagnosis of malocclusions
— Treatment planning according to the MEAW protocol
— Application of MEAW in the treatment of open bite and deep bite
— Application of MEAW in the treatment of Class II and Class III malocclusions
— Correction of midline deviation
— Principles of MEAW activation and torque control.
