Orthodontics is a facial, skeletal and dental speciality. None of those three areas can be isolated in an Ortho treatment as all of them are in a complete interrelation.
The orthodontist is responsible of the facial harmony of the face of the patient. Carriere Motion Appliance is a Saggital corrector that will work into the correction of our Class II and Class III cases in a minimally invasive approach for non extraction orthodontics. The use of the Carriere Motion Appliance as a non-extraction, predictable and minimally invasive distalization approach for Class II and Class III malocclusions will be discussed.
Aspects as principles developed by nature for optimization of material and force with elegance of forms will be studied as well as the reduction of a design to an extreme for maximum function optimization. The result will be a nature-objectified design in the morphology of new innovative devices such as the Motion and the Carriere self-ligating bracket.
Dr. Carriere’s lecture will cover the rationale of their function and will present the protocol of their use, will also discuss the resolution of orthodontic space problems related to friction created, as well as clinical considerations of new technology wires in the achievement of biologic friendly action. The objective is to present a predictable and simple orthodontic method. The key is to achieve, as the very first step of the treatment, a Class One Platform of the posterior segments from molar to canine by distalizing them as a block and simultaneously change the posterior occlusal planes to accomplish a reposition of the mandible in a more adequate anatomical and functional position in reference to the maxilla while harmonizing the face and profile of the patient with an added effect of an augmentation in the permeability of the airway condition. From this point on, the treatment can be continued from the achieved Class I with a low force passive self-ligation fixed protocol.
The newly designed Carriere SLX 3D Self-Ligating Bracket System establishes a new standard in excellence and performance in a passive self-ligating bracket. Many of the newly designed innovations were clinician driven to provide us with clinical effectiveness and efficiency. In this presentation you will discover many of the innovative features of the Carriere SLX Bracket System. All designed to meet your ultimate goals in: 1) effective case management. 2) optimal tooth positioning. 3) meticulous case finishes.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Learn how to control adequate saggital control with predictability.
2. Learn how to accomplish a solid class I posterior platform in Class II and Class III cases.
3. Learn how to simplify and optimize the orthodontic procedure and at the same time reduce the treatment timing. Sculpturing the facial harmony through the orthodontic hard tissue management.
