Embracing a New Era
Gerety Orthodontic Seminars is dedicated to providing the highest quality orthodontic education to general and pediatric dentists, which includes the successful integration of orthodontics into your practice. There are many ways we can help you to obtain your goals of expanding the services that you offer to your patients. Gerety Orthodontic Seminars offers a diverse range of courses both online and in the classroom, we provide online diagnostic help in between classroom sessions and our continued support to each and every student after graduation is unparalleled. Our mission is to help you be successful in orthodontics and enjoy the process!
We offer a complete program of orthodontic education that is structured for the general dentist who has no orthodontic experience other than what was presented in dental school. Our curriculum was developed and taught by Dr Robert Gerety for over 40 years and has been the only true Gerety program taught with his guidance and support. There are 3 types of courses that we feel are vital to not only your initial learning but to your continued successes. The first type of course is providing the dentist with a thorough and complete orthodontic education, which is our Comprehensive Orthodontic Education Program, a series of five sessions. The second type are courses that are dedicated to teaching your dental assistants how to help you accomplish your goals, which is our Assistant Training Program. The last type is our Annual Symposium which is focused on advanced mechanics with an emphasis on case finishing. This annual meeting is a great way to review techniques and discuss new trends and products.
Regardless of your orthodontic education goals we have the solutions for you and your office team, and we have the flexibility to offer instruction in the classroom and online!

Dr Huffman will be presenting our Advanced Orthodontic Training for Assistants in Dallas May 17-18 in conjunction with the Gerety Comprehensive Orthodontic course, and we are looking forward to another great course! Damon is a highly enthusiastic presenter, motivating, as well as knowledgeable, and enables his students to return to your practice with a renewed excitement and enthusiasm for dentistry and the ability to contribute to your office.
This 2 day, hands-on course for experienced Orthodontic Assistants is designed to meet the needs of doctors and assistants who are currently utilizing Straight-Wire mechanics, and would like to expand the delegable duties to be performed by the assistant. Although it is not mandatory to have participated in the Gerety Basic Assistant Course, this advanced course is specifically structured to enhance and develop the principles and techniques taught in the basic course. Additionally, it will provide an excellent follow-up for assistants who have previously participated in the Basic Assistant Course or who have extensive experience in orthodontic assisting. It is recommended that participants be familiar with taking basic orthodontic records, bracket and molar band placement, ligation methods and basic wire changing techniques. Each assistant needs to be comfortable with basic orthodontic procedures.
Hands-On Participation exercises include:

We offer a complete program of orthodontic education that is structured for the general dentist who has no orthodontic experience other than what was presented in dental school. With 48 years of developing our curriculum and techniques and our dedication to Embracing a New Era, we are poised to offer the most comprehensive and flexible orthodontic educational program available today. Over the years the Gerety program has become the Gold Standard of comprehensive orthodontic courses, teaching over 15,000 students. By adding new technology and techniques, and with our flexibility and history of success, we are prepared to meet your professional needs and offer what others can’t:

Our goal is to provide you with criteria and guidance for your beginning cases. We want the cases you treat in the beginning to be straightforward and rewarding. We try to avoid cases that are more advanced and offer guidance with your case selection so you will have success and gain confidence.
Our predictable diagnostic system will help doctors avoid cases that have hidden difficulties that manifest during treatment and can discourage a beginning doctor.
We set aside a day during each session to review your records for case selection and to review and troubleshoot the cases you have in treatment. Our instructors are available to look at your cases during the course and keep you on track with your progress.
We continually add materials, appliances and mechanics to our program as they become available. It is our objective to start you with the mechanics that are most effective and predictable.
As important as mechanics are to the orthodontic case, choosing the right mechanic is not as important as implementing the right mechanic in the proper sequence. We provide a roadmap for treatment sequencing.
There is an art to case finishing that begins at the start of the case. The amount of time spent fine tuning and case finishing mechanics at the end of the case can be much less when you have followed the road map from the beginning.
Our course will be held in Dallas, TX at the Marriott Quorum Addison.
The dates for each of the sessions are:
September 27 - 29, 2024
November 15 - 17, 2024
January 10 - 12, 2025
March 21 - 23, 2025
May 2 - 4, 2025
As we have Embraced a New Era, we have incorporated the great strides being made in technology. As a forerunner in Online orthodontic teaching, we were the first provider to offer our complete Comprehensive Orthodontic program ONLINE. With 14 years of experience presenting our program online it is a proven success and the benchmark for our industry. The availability of our online program allows us the flexibility to use it alongside our classroom course and offer it to use as a study aid in between sessions and to make up missed sessions. As Live Streaming became available, we added it as another tool to accommodate your schedule and needs. The Live Stream allows us to capture new ideas, materials, techniques and theories that are introduced in the classroom.
Our course offers the best of both worlds, there is no need to just choose one.
You can blend all the options to customize a learning format that is best for you!
Our ONLINE ortho course has proven to be an invaluable asset to our classroom students to use as a study aid at home in between sessions and even to make up missed sessions. We will provide limited access to our ONLINE course for all early registration students. It is the best of both worlds! Enjoy the classroom interaction experience and then review the same PowerPoint and lecture materials, and even the project videos that we present in the classroom, ONLINE from the comfort of your home or office.
