OHI-S Challenging Orthodontic Cases The Use of Skeletal Anchorage 7 lessons 11h 10m

6 lessons + 1 free (11h 10min)

Benedict Wilmes is a legendary doctor who directs and leads modern Western orthodontics! Professor will conduct webinars on his profile topic and will analyze:

– the use of skeletal support in complex orthodontic cases

– distalization and mesialization of the upper jaw molars using microimplants

– class 3 treatment with skeletal support

– treatment of pathology in the transversal plane

– orthodontics before prosthetics.

Dr. Wilmes has repeatedly surprised orthodontists with non-standard clinical solutions! And he can’t wait to share them with you!

The OHI‑S Challenging Orthodontic Cases – The Use of Skeletal Anchorage (7 lessons, 11h 10m) program is best for orthodontists, residents, and general dentists with orthodontic focus who want to master advanced anchorage techniques for complex cases. It emphasizes the use of temporary anchorage devices (TADs) and skeletal anchorage systems to solve problems that traditional mechanics struggle with.

Who Should Attend
Orthodontists managing difficult malocclusions and esthetic challenges.
Orthodontic residents & postgraduate students seeking advanced training in skeletal anchorage.
General dentists with orthodontic practice expanding into complex treatment planning.
Implantologists & oral surgeons collaborating on skeletal anchorage placement.
Prosthodontists coordinating interdisciplinary cases involving orthodontics and restorative care.
What You’ll Learn
Principles of skeletal anchorage: biomechanics and clinical applications.
TADs (temporary anchorage devices): placement, stability, and troubleshooting.
Complex case management: open bites, severe crowding, Class II/III corrections.
Interdisciplinary approaches: combining orthodontics with prosthetic and surgical planning.
Esthetic zone considerations: managing smiles and facial harmony with anchorage.
Case‑based learning: 7 structured lessons totaling 11h 10m of advanced instruction.
