Synopsis:
Today more than ever, every orthodontist and general dentist must distinguish and apply good clinical sense with exquisite differential therapies, while side-stepping clinical myths. Attractive smiles have beauty, functional comfort, smile symmetry, facial balance and TMJ stability consistent with the individualized facial morphology. The patient should triumph after treatment with optimized function, elevated self-confidence, and a radiant smile.

Today’s clinicians have awakened to 3D interest in facial and dynamic smile perspectives. Cases done well utilizing effective interdisciplinary approaches yield stunning smiles and occlusal harmonies. Knowledge is knowing facts; wisdom is knowing what to do with them. This presentation celebrates great smile outcomes with a team approach and goes step by step on how to achieve this. Many clinical examples of treatment approaches and cases are shown.

Every dentists and orthodontist needs to watch this new online Dentaltown continuing education course titled “Orthodontics and Restorative Triumphs” by Duane Grummons, DDS, MSD. Even if you do not do any orthodontics, you still need to diagnose your pediatric patients orthodontic condition to tell mom and dad about their children’s orthodontic issues. This course is being praised by Board Certified Orthodontists so I assure you even the most experienced general dentist doing all of their orthodontics for 25 years plus will learn a lot form this course. Congratulations Dr. Grummons!
