Pushing the boundaries of skeletal anchorage

Day 1

Advanced Skeletal Anchorage and HANDS-ON session

• Innovation – new tools for new goals
• Digital 3D planning & indirect insertion protocols –
advantages and disadvantages of guided placement
• Class II management – aligners vs skeletal anchorage
protocols
• Class III management – aligners vs skeletal anchorage
protocols
• Vertical problems & deep bite – effective strategies
for control
• Palatal skeletal anchorage for maxillary expansion –
how, when, and why!
• Lateral agenesis management – from orthodontics
to post-orthodontic workflows and protocols
• Maxillary distalization biomechanics –
systems compared
• Failures, risks, and complications – how to prevent
and manage them
• Hybrid approach – protocols combining skeletal
anchorage with aligners
• Clinical case presentations – real-world examples
across different scenarios

Day 2

Paradigm Shift in the Aligner Era: From Basics to Hybrid Treatments

Building on the biomechanics developed on Day 1,
participants will learn how to integrate skeletal anchorage
with aligners, creating effective hybrid treatment
protocols for challenging clinical situations

• Introduction to FAS – from diagnosis to treatment planning
• FAS Portal Guide – how to submit a clinical case
• Diagnostic Flowchart – streamlined evaluation for efficiency
• Planning Movements & Staging
• Distinguish simple vs. complex movements
• Maximize efficiency
• Enhance predictability
• Evaluating and Refining OcclusalDesign® – predictable,
efficient movements
• Recognize and promote predictable movements
• Master the timing of tooth movements: when and how
• Attachments – which ones, when, and where to use them
• Auxiliaries – buttons, holders, and more
• Interproximal Reduction (IPR)
•Best timing for execution
• Ideal sites for reduction
• Clinical Case Management with Aligners – from routine
treatments to complex scenarios.
