Topic of the lecture:
The future of orthodontics is prevention: the power of clear aligners for preventive orthodontics
Abstract:
Everyone is talking about aligners as a magic wand for adults and teenagers. What about our children? Orthodontics is not only about teeth. The teeth are only a symptom for an underlying problem like breathing and poor tongue resting position. From which age do you see the first signs of the underlying problems and how can you treat it. Using clear aligners and the right biomechanics will help you to change a child’s life one breath at a time.
