Course Description

The aim of this course is to teach how to make a correct treatment plan for different malocclusions. Before starting treatment, patient records are taken, and treatment planning is made by detecting the existing dental and skeletal orthodontic anomaly. For this purpose, initially ideal skeletal and dental concepts are taught to differentiate normal from abnormal. Malocclusions other than ideal relationships are defined. Factors such as chronological age, dental age and bone age, cephalometric and model analyzes are evaluated and treatment planning is revealed. Malocclusions are examined according to the antero-posterior, transversal and vertical planes of space and classified according to the Angle’s classification. In addition, the factors causing malocclusion are classified and examined.
