College of Diplomates of the American Board of Orthodontics (CDABO) 40th Annual Meeting

College of Diplomates of the American Board of Orthodontics (CDABO) 40th Annual Meeting is organized by College of Diplomates of the American Board of Orthodontics (CDABO) and will be held during Jul 06 - 10, 2018 at Disney's BoardWalk Villas, Orlando, Florida, United States of America.

The target audience for this medical event is dentists. This CME Conference has been approved FOR a maximum of 13.75 CE Credits.

The primary aim of this presentation is to illustrate the dental and skeletal effects of maxillary expansion using the conventional rapid palatal expander (RPE), the surgically-assisted rapid palatal expander (SARPE), and the micro-implant assisted maxillary skeletal expander (MSE). Dental expansion, bone bending, and true skeletal expansion will be compared. The adverse clinical consequences of RPE and SARPE in high-angle cases will be explored, and a new approach eliminating these problems by the use of MSE will be presented. Clinical cases involving non-surgical midfacial expansion in both adolescent and adult patients will be examined in detail.

Conference Objectives are :
• Understanding the differences in expansion by RPE, SARPE and MSE
• Differences between various designs of micro-implant assisted rapid
palatal expanders (MARPE), and MSE (a particular type of MARPE).
• How to produce parallel expansion of maxilla in occlusal and frontal planes with MSE
• Nonsurgical orthopedic expansion in adults with MSE
• Other skeletal impacts associated with MSE
• Stability in RPE, SARPE and MSE

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
