Course Introduction:

The introduction of the miniscrews and the temporary skeletal anchorage
systems (TADs) has determined a real revolution in orthodontics, going to modify
and simplify the setting and management of the anchor, one of the key points of
orthodontic treatment. Like other innovative procedures, the application of TADs
can be initially rejected by the clinician, who may consider it complex and
unnecessary. The course is intended to illustrate the advantages and
disadvantages of TADs, their features and benefits, simple clinical procedures, as
well as the possible risks and complications. Inter-radicular approaches will be
deeply analysed, evaluating respective advantages and disadvantages. Our goal
will be to increase the knowledge and confidence of the clinical application of
TADs, through the analysis of different clinical situations, as well as by applying
TADs on resin models. Indeed, the PRACTICAL part of the course offers the
possibility of simulating various procedures for the application and management
of devices with skeletal anchorage.
