XIV Theoretical-Practical Course On Mini-Screws and Skeletal Anchorage

Course Presentation

Miniscrews and, overall, all skeletal anchorage are widely used bone anchorage elements in current orthodontic practice. Their clinical application ranges from situations of lack of anchorage, orthodontic movements where conventional anchorage does not suffice, or orthopedic treatments that until very recently were only indicated in children and can now be applied to adolescents and adults. For this reason, the routine use of mini-screws and skeletal anchorage significantly broadens treatment possibilities, and their knowledge is essential in clinical practice.

There is a before and after in the field of Orthodontics with the advent and routine use of mini-screws and skeletal anchorage. Thus, the objective of the XIII edition of the theoretical-practical course on mini-screws and skeletal anchorage conducted by the Orthodontics Area is to provide comprehensive knowledge from A to Z in skeletal anchorage, enabling its immediate use in clinical practice.

Assessment method:

An online self-assessment test will be carried out at the end of the course so that students can assess the  achievement  of their personal goals and their knowledge of the content of the course.
