Theoretical – Laboratory
Objective
The course is intended for Orthodontists and graduate students in Orthodontics, aiming to discuss basic concepts of Orthodontic Mechanics, concepts, and devices used in the Segmented Arch technique, space closing mechanics with double key arch, sliding (Straight Wire ) and concepts of mechanics in the Edgewise technique.
