ESAO - essential information from orthodontic experts

The European Society of Aesthetic Orthodontics (ESAO) is committed to raising the standards of aesthetically focused orthodontic provision by GDPs through improving their core knowledge.

Following on from the success of last December’s course, the ESAO will run two parallel courses on 21^st June; one designed for dentists and one tailored toward dental nurses. Delegates will be offered all the hands on experience necessary to deliver aesthetically focused orthodontics in a safe and ethical way.

Attendees to the dentist course will have the opportunity to practice interproximal reduction (IPR) on typodonts, and will explore topics from accessing joint abnormality; accessing occlusion; Incision edge bonding and composite laying techniques; as well as effective retention protocols to avoid relapse.

While delegates on the dental nurses course will be instructed on how to take impressions, the safe removal of retainers and taking effective orthodontic photographs.

Both courses will feature specialist orthodontists who will provide valuable insight into the many fruitful ways that GDPs and specialists can work together. Contact EASO today to find out more, and see how your practice can benefit from offering aesthetically focused orthodontics.
