This course is designed as a follow-up to the introduction (SureSmile Level 1 program) course to the use of ADVANCED CLEAR ALIGNERS DIAGNOSTICS AND TECHNIQUES.
This advanced orthodontic course focuses on clear aligner techniques, delving into diagnostic, assessment, and treatment planning. Demonstrating cases from evaluation to retention, the course equips attendees to handle moderate to complex clear aligner cases using auxiliaries and diverse orthodontic mechanics.
Who is this course for?
The course is suitable for General Dental Practitioners and Specialist Orthodontists who already have experience in clear aligners using either SureSmile or another aligner brand.
Those who are new to aligners would be expected to have completed the SureSmile Level 1 course no more than 1 year prior to attending this programme.
Delegates are expected to have completed a full orthodontic aligner case and have had a reasonable number of varied cases currently in the planning or active treatment stages.
This course covers more advanced aspects of orthodontic diagnostics, assessment and treatment planning in respect to clear aligner techniques.
