OHI-S Functional appliances. Explore – compare – select

+ Include: 6 videos + 6 audios + 6 file sub vtt, size: 6.53 GB

+ Target Audience: orthodontists

+ Information:

6 lessons (11h 5min)

Unique training on working with the most common and effective functional appliances in all age groups of patients (including in adults)!

The key idea of the course is to enable you to:

– Explore
– Compare
– And choose functional appliances for solving certain clinical problems in your daily orthodontic practice.

We will explore, compare and choose between the following appliances:

– TwinBlock
– ALF
– Frankel regulator
– Modified Herbst appliance – SARA.

The OHI‑S Functional Appliances: Explore – Compare – Select course is best for orthodontists, pediatric dentists, and general dentists with orthodontic focus who want structured, training in the selection and application of functional appliances for growing patients. It emphasizes comparative analysis of different appliance systems, evidence‑based protocols, and clinical decision‑making to ensure predictable outcomes in early orthodontic treatment.

Who Should Enroll

Orthodontists specializing in interceptive and growth‑modifying treatments.
Pediatric dentists managing malocclusions in mixed dentition and collaborating with orthodontists.
General dentists with orthodontic practice seeking clarity on appliance selection and protocols.
Residents & fellows in orthodontics or pediatric dentistry learning functional appliance biomechanics.
Dental technicians fabricating functional appliances and supporting clinical workflows.

What You’ll Learn

Exploration of appliances: overview of major functional appliances (e.g., Twin Block, Herbst, Frankel, Bionator).
Comparative analysis: strengths, limitations, and indications of each appliance type.
Selection protocols: evidence‑based criteria for choosing the right appliance for each malocclusion.
Vertical dimension & growth control: how appliances influence jaw development and occlusion.
Clinical integration: step‑by‑step guidance for appliance delivery, monitoring, and adjustments.
Case‑based lessons: real examples showing appliance selection and treatment outcomes.
