Orthodontics and biomechanics are interconnected disciplines that play a crucial role in achieving proper dental alignment and facial esthetics. This course provides a solid understanding of the basic ideas and concepts underlying biomechanics and orthodontics. We explore the historical development and evolution of orthodontic biomechanics as well as the basic concepts of the field. We discuss the biomechanics of tooth movement and the role of archwires in orthodontic biomechanics.

The course then examines the different types of orthodontic appliances and auxiliaries necessary for effective orthodontic treatment. We then delve into the principles, strategies and techniques used in anchorage control and the biomechanical considerations, strategies and mechanics employed to efficiently and effectively close spaces between teeth. We also teach you the biomechanical principles and strategies used in orthodontic treatment to correct Class II and Class III malocclusions (misaligned teeth).

Understanding the biomechanics behind aligner therapy is crucial for orthodontists tand allows them to effectively plan and execute treatment to ensure optimal tooth movement and successful dental outcomes. We study the biomechanical principles specific to aligner therapy and their application in clinical practice. Finally, this dentistry course discusses the principles, placement techniques and biomechanical considerations associated with the use of Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADS) in orthodontic practice. This dentistry course is suitable for prospective professional orthodontists. Enrol to get started in the field of orthodontic biomechanics.
