About the conference
Lack of space is one of the most common problems in orthodontics.
The speakers will address this issue by presenting the latest scientific and clinically proven therapies according to the age of the patient. The clinical results of a unique spring-loaded expander and appliances anchored to TADs will be presented in detail, as well as digital workflow production in the laboratory.
