Abstract

As short term orthodontics becomes more and more popular, the importance of assessing the soft tissues is paramount. Comprehensive assessment of the soft tissues prior to orthodontic treatment will allow you to prepare patients for potential side effects and subsequent management strategies. This webinar will also give an insight contemporary mucogingival surgery can offer to patients who may suffer from recession pre and post ortho. Highly relevant for dentists, dental hygienists and therapists
