OHI-S Jaw functional orthopedic immersion
Include: 9 videos + 9 audios + 9 file sub vtt, size: 4.26 GBTarget Audience: orthodontist, orthopedist, gnathologist, general dentist Information:8 lessons + 1 free (7h 11min)A unique course on jaws functional orthopedics by Patricia Valerio!Lecturer will share the knowledge she have gained throughout her clinical career.Here are some of the questions that will be addressed during the course:
- Jaws functional orthopedics concepts and mechanisms
- A functional approach to treatment in various occlusion pathologies
- Detailed analysis of functional appliances: mechanism of action, design, indications for use
- The relationship of the malocclusion with other organs and systems of the body.
The OHI‑S Jaw Functional Orthopedic Immersion course is best for orthodontists, pediatric dentists, oral & maxillofacial surgeons, and prosthodontists who want structured, training in functional jaw orthopedics. It emphasizes evidence‑based protocols for diagnosing and treating skeletal discrepancies, guiding craniofacial growth, and ensuring long‑term functional stability.
Who Should Enroll
- Orthodontists managing skeletal malocclusions and integrating orthopedic protocols into treatment planning.
- Pediatric dentists treating growing patients where functional jaw orthopedics can guide proper craniofacial development.
- Oral & maxillofacial surgeons collaborating on orthopedic interventions and surgical cases.
- Prosthodontists & restorative dentists rehabilitating patients with occlusal and skeletal imbalances.
- Residents & fellows in orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, or oral surgery seeking immersion in functional orthopedic concepts.
- Dental technicians supporting appliance fabrication for orthopedic treatments.
What You’ll Learn
- Functional jaw orthopedics principles: evidence‑based protocols for growth guidance and skeletal correction.
- Diagnosis & analysis: clinical and radiographic evaluation of jaw discrepancies.
- Appliance therapy: design, selection, and management of orthopedic appliances.
- Interdisciplinary collaboration: combining orthodontics, surgery, and restorative dentistry for comprehensive care.
- Retention strategies: ensuring long‑term stability after orthopedic interventions.
- Case‑based lessons: real examples of functional orthopedic treatments in children and adults.
