TADS Advanced Masterclass: Managing Complex Malocclusions Using TADS & Aligners 2025

TADS Advanced Masterclass: Managing Complex Malocclusions Using TADS & Aligners 2025 is organized by Centre for Advanced Professional Practices (CAPP) and will be held from Feb 07 - 08, 2025 at CAPP Events & Training, Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Description:
Temporary anchorage devices have become a mainstay of contemporary clinical practice offering guaranteed control of anchorage for both routine and complex tooth movements. This course will outline some of the more common TADs in use today, show placement from first principles, and discuss the differences when selecting conventional fixed orthodontic appliances and aligners. The anatomy of placement sites and the advantages and disadvantages of these sites will be discussed. Simple direct and indirect mechanics will be shown to facilitate controlled tooth movements in the sagittal, transverse and vertical dimensions. Hands-On component of the course will require the participants to practice placing TADs in different sites as well as work through the steps of making a mini screw retained orthodontic appliance.

Learning Objectives:

• Review the history, evolution, design, placement, and clinical use of TADs
• Understanding of how to incorporate TADs into treatment planning
• Understand the difference in mechanics required when utilizing direct versus indirect anchorage, and
• Practice the clinical skills to select, place, and utilize TADS in orthodontic treatment.
