Come and join Dr Björn Ludwig,
the EOS 2021 Distinguished Teacher,
 
in an interactive free webinar lecture for postgraduate students titled
 
"From enthusiasm to disappointment or back to the future – temporary anchorage devices (TADs) in the digital age".
This webinar represents 3 hours of Continuing Professional Development (3 CPD points).

Speaker Bio
Björn Ludwig maintains a private orthodontic practice in Traben-Trarbach, Germany. He is also assistant Professor at the Department of Orthodontics, University of Homburg/Saar and the focus of his research is skeletal anchorage and 3D imaging. He has published numerous clinical and scientific papers and several orthodontic books. Björn is editor in chief of the Quintessenz publication “Kieferorthopädie” (Orthodontics) and co-editor of the Journal of Clinical Orthodontics. Björn is council member of the German Board of Orthodontics and is past president of the European Begg Society.

Why Attend

  • Learn how to report the current success of TADs 

  • Find out the different diagnostic procedures to evaluate the palate as an appropriate insertion site.

  • Learn how to establish the most common biomechanics used in combination with palatal TADs

Abstract
The benefits of skeletal anchorage became clear during the last two decades of development and the use of mini-implants is now more widespread. Many well-established workflows exist with sound biomechanics. A large number of papers have been published on the subject of failure rates, insertion sites and risk factors. Although use of TADs continues to evolve, engaging with digital technology. However, the benefits of this advanced technology may be limited. This lecture will present many clinical examples demonstrating successful outcomes, failures, errors and possible solutions. The current literature on the subject matter will reviewed and the presentation will conclude with a critical evaluation of recent developments of techniques.
