Skeletal Anchorage in Orthodontics: Digital Technologies and Optimal Aligner And TAD Combinations. Seminar by Benedict Wilmes. "VIP" option

The seminar is dedicated to modern concepts of skeletal anchorage and its integration into the digital orthodontic workflow. Participants will learn how mini-implants (TADs) provide reliable anchorage control, expand clinical possibilities, and deliver predictable treatment outcomes.

The lecturer — Benedict Wilmes — is a leading authority who has significantly shaped contemporary Western orthodontics.

Key Topics:

— Optimal insertion sites for mini-implants (TADs)
— Skeletal anchorage and anchorage control
— Combination of mini-implants and aligners
— Molar mesialization, distalization, intrusion, and en-masse retraction
— Alignment of impacted teeth
— Virtual planning and digital workflows.

This course establishes a modern perspective on skeletal anchorage as a powerful control system that enhances the orthodontist’s capabilities and increases treatment predictability.

IMPORTANT: the “Seminar. Standard”, “Seminar. Comfort” and “Hands-on workshop” participation options are also available for purchase.

Program

Theoretical Part:

– Optimal insertion sites for mini-implants: anterior palate and mental region vs. alveolar process
– Skeletal anchorage as a strategy to prevent anchorage loss and minimize the side effects of intermaxillary elastics
– Integration of digital technologies: virtual planning, surgical guides, CAD/CAM, and 3D printing
– Combination of mini-implants and aligners for predictable bodily tooth movement
– Rationale for the use of mini-implants (TADs) in orthodontic practice
– CAD/CAM versus conventional workflow
– Mini-implants with abutments
– Upper molar distalization
– Upper molar mesialization
– En-masse retraction
– Rapid palatal expansion and early Class III treatment
– Molar uprighting
– Molar intrusion
– Alignment of impacted teeth
– Temporary pontics using mini-implants (TADs).
