Orthodontic Treatment in Mixed Dentition

This course will concentrate on the diagnosis and treatment of children in the mixed dentition. Many problems encountered in this age group should be addressed when they are identified in order to prevent the development of additional problems. Accordingly, treatment of children without full permanent dentition requires specific diagnostic and treatment approaches. The course will include a didactic component as well as a clinical rotation. In the clinic, children in the mixed dentition will be examined, and treatment will be planned and delivered as appropriate.
