Course Objectives

To provide typodont and equipment to experience TAD placement using standard and palatal screw drivers.
To review root positions and site access for placement
Delegates will be guided on best sites for placement to achieve idealistic tooth movements for various clinical cases.

Course Abstract

Temporary anchorage devices have become a mainstay of contemporary clinical practice offering guaranteed control of anchorage for both routine and complex tooth movements. This lecture will outline some of the more common TADs in use today and show placement from first principles. Anatomy of placement sites and advantages and disadvantages of these sites will be discussed. Simple direct and indirect mechanics will be shown to facilitate controlled anteroposterior tooth movements. Anterior open bite case management will be discussed.
