We are excited this year to have introduced Myobrace as a new adjunct therapy into our comprehensive orthodontic education program. The implementation of Myobrace treatment into our continuing education program will give our doctors an additional protocol for interceptive treatment. The beauty of this is that the treatment can be started at such an early age to deal with mouth breathing, snoring, gummy smiles, constricted arches, crowding in primary dentition, speech problems, etc. Patient compliance is the key and this compliance requires constant encouragement and motivation. Another key and bonus is that the majority of the management of the protocol can and should be delegated to your staff. We are excited to make this part of our comprehensive orthodontic training.
In this video we have a panel discussion on what Myobrace is and why we decided to make it a part of our system. We hope you get a lot of value out of it. Mark your calendars for our Annual Gerety Advanced Mechanics Meeting in Tulsa August 10-11, 2018, we will be presenting in depth how Myobrace integrates into our interceptive treatment philosophy.

We are very excited to present a completely restructured Basic Orthodontic course for the dental auxiliary Due to the increased usage of third party ceph tracing services and digital tracing software, we have removed the clinical portion of ceph tracing from the two day program. This will allow more time to focus on the clinical procedures that will better serve the doctor in their day to day delivery of patient care. We listened to your requests and have introduced a clinical photography module to the basic program. Our goal is to teach proper techniques and procedures for producing consistent high quality images for orthodontic documentation. Each office that is represented is encouraged to bring their camera in order for us to customize their procedures and settings. Multiple stations are set-up in the classroom so that each assistant can produce a complete set of images that meet the standard of care guidelines. Enroll now while seats are still available because these courses will sell out Kay Gerety's orthodontic assistant courses are highly respected and only offered once a year. Kay's Basic Ortho Training course is the perfect opportunity for you to begin the process of providing your staff with the knowledge ...

Annual Case Finishing Course - Advanced Orthodontic Methods, Mechanics and Techniques August 11-12, 2017 Discovering the Role of Interceptive Treatment in Case Finishing Excellence About the Course In order to fine tune and detail orthodontic cases we must be willing to spend a little extra time, closely examine every minute detail, and completely understand the system of case finishing mechanics. Recent advances in material and products can greatly enhance our case finishing mechanics. This two-day program will focus on beginning to finishing mechanics, and utilizing the proper tools to best resolve the issues in the most efficient and effective manner. Though the Straight-Wire technique is based on no wire bending, wouldn t you like to learn limited and selective wire bending to expedite case finishing These bends can also be used initially to correct molar rotation more efficiently, create anterior intrusion and bite opening, as well as angulation bends in the finishing stages. We also want to teach the indications for effectively using auxiliary wires for tooth guidance and eruption and establishing segments within the arches for increased anchorage and control. We have many new ideas and solutions to help you solve the mystery of case finishing and believe this ...
