Training program
Day 1

Theoretical part

10:00 - 13:30
  1. Introduction to orthodontic biomechanics
    - Optimal forces needed for tooth movement
    - The force versus the centre of resistance

    - The moment of force
    - The moment of force to moment of couple ratio

    - The centre of rotation
    - Types of tooth movements depending on the centre of rotation
    - Force systems in orthodontics: determinate one-couple systems,     and
       non-determinate two-couple systems

    - Biomechanics of the simple lever

    - Biomechanics of V bends

    - Biomechanics of step bends

  2. Indications for early orthodontic treatment
  3. Methods of treating eruption disorders: impacted baby teeth, supernumerary teeth,
    reinclusion, ectopic eruption, impacted teeth (incisors, canine teeth, molars),
    transposition, primary eruption disorders – aetiology, orthodontic – surgical
    therapeutic protocols and biomechanics of impacted tooth extrusion
    (“piggyback” technique, vertical and horizontal simple lever,
    ballista spring, extrusion and intrusion arches, micro implants).
  4. Methods of treating transverse disturbances
    - Transverse maxillary hypoplasia: assessment of the skeletal disproportion and
    maturity of the mid-palatal suture, removable plate expander with a screw, bi-helix,
    NiTi expander, expander with a hyrax screw
    - Crossbites caused by tooth positioning: mechanics of the bend out and toe in
    bending - expansion arch with V-type bends, trans-palatal arches, NiTi expander,
    biomechanics of intermaxillary tractions, micro implants
    - Suspended bites caused by tooth positioning: removable plate expander with a
    screw, mechanics of the bend out and toe in bending – contraction arch with V-type
    bends, expansion arch with V-type bends, biomechanics of intermaxillary tractions,
    micro implants

    - Early treatment – indications, biomechanics in preparation for bite jumping
    - Growth modification in adolescents: functional appliances, fabrication of
    construction bite, structural modifications of functional appliances, 
    Biomechanics of fixed correctors class 2, headgear
    - Camouflage with teeth displacements: biomechanics of internal tractions,
    incisor recession into the extraction socket, and tooth anchorage control,
    distalisation using micro implants

  2. Treating defects class 3
    -Treatment of anterior crossbites caused by teeth misalignment, employment
    of the V bending mechanics to control the anchorage
    - Treatment of horizontal and vertical maxillary hypoplasia with employed 
     biomechanics of reversed headgear
    - Camouflage with teeth displacements: biomechanics of internal tractions,
    incisor recession into the extraction socket, and 
    tooth anchorage control

  3. Treatment of deep bite
    -  Control of overbite in the straight arch technique
    - Extrusion of lateral teeth: bite planes, RCS, bendings, 
    positioning of brackets, tractions
    - Intrusion arches: mechanics of the tip back bend, Mulligan, Ricketts, and 
    Nandy arches
    - Biomechanics in correction of the inclination of the denture aesthetic line
    - Treatment modifying growth: bite plate, functional appliance

  4. Treatment of open bites
    - Elimination of the sucking habit
    - Permanent tongue guard
    - Extrusion in the anterior section: tractions, mechanics of the tip forward bend,
    extrusion arches, tooth anchorage control
    - Treatment modifying growth: high-pull headgear,
    functional appliance with bite planes
    - The impact of extraction of individual teeth on the therapeutic process,
    treatment mechanics, and the achieved results
