Orthodontic Fundamentals course

Orthodontic Fundamentals (Zoom on-line) Course:

This very popular online course commenced in 2021. The course runs on a 3-monthly basis with registration possible for one or both days. The sessions typically start at 8am UK time finishing at 2pm. There are six lectures per day.

We believe that the course represents a very complete overview of orthodontic treatment planning and mechanics with a clinical focus and an evidence-based underpinning. We update the content regularly and include content spanning from treatment planning to anchorage management, finishing and retention.

Padhraig has been an invited lecturer all over the world being invited to present throughout Europe, America, Asia, Australia and New Zealand. He is also Chair of Orthodontics in Trinity College Dublin having formerly been Training and Doctorate Programme Lead in Orthodontics at Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry, Queen Mary University of London.

We are confident that the course represents a very complete overview of orthodontic treatment planning and mechanics with a clinical focus and an evidence-based underpinning.

We provide detailed notes, access to useful literature and a certificate of attendance.
