Adaptive Orthodontics - In Office Aligner Orthodontics - Module 2

AOS courses are designed as a problem base learning model for dentist and dental professionals approved to deliver orthodontic treatment. It is relevant to allied dental professionals (aka dental auxiliaries), who may be not allowed to design orthodontic treatment but are able to function as treatment coordinators, to understand the process and better deliver and monitor treatment. No prior orthodontic experience is required. 

For the cost of the lowest aligner fee by a third party aligner provider, you will learn how to do it all yourself in house using one of your own case. 

At the cost the highest third party aligner provider fee you can setup your own in house aligner manufacturing. You may be surprise how little it can cost. 

• Your ROI ( Return On Investment ) is immediate.
• Improve your confidence and result  as you take control of the full process of the aligner design and fabrication. 
• Improve your profitability and/or number of case acceptance as you control the cost of aligner delivery. 

FIVE MODULES SERIES

Series 1 course takes place over 5 modules and is designed to be spread over a full day per module.

The modules are as outlined below:

• Module 1- Setup & Design
• Module 2 – Digital Orthodontics
• Module 3 – Digital Control
• Module 4 – 3D Printing
• Module 5 – Case Management
  

PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING - AN EXCITING WAY TO LEARN
We require that every participant should ideally have their own cases to start the course. Your first case must be approved if you do not have prior orthodontic experience and the case must be ready to be started for Module-1.1.

• Case studies are central to the AOS education philosophy.
• AOS introduce theory in context and the relevance makes learning meaningful and easy.
• Follow up study group are offered to further mentor you through your education

PREREQUISITES

Ideally a complete set of pre-operative records of your first case would be good but since the record taking is in Module 1. This is a chicken or egg scenario. 

What you need as an absolute minimum to start a case are the following

• DIGITAL MODELS - STL files, an
• OPG and a
• LATERAL CEPHOLOGRAM.
  

• LAPTOP - Minimum specifications
  • Windows only (Sorry)
  • Graphic Card - Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 Ti - OR BETTER
  • Fast Memory - at least 16 gig Ram - OR MORE - the more the better
  • MOUSE with Left, Right and Centre Wheel - (Laptop Mouse Pad is NOT WORKABLE)
• A PASSION FOR ORTHODONTICS - or at least a keen interest at the start but we will instill you with the passion by the end 🙂

If you do not have any or much orthodontic experience choose a friendly case to start with. This could be yourself, a family member or a staff requiring orthodontic treatment and not too complex a case.
