This unit is designed to familiarise students with important advanced orthodontic techniques including invisible techniques (e.g. Invisalign and lingual). Each clinical technique is taught first by typodont simulation and then applied to patients. Advanced skills training also covers the further knowledge and use of advanced digital imaging systems in assisting case diagnosis, treatment planning and treatment assessment.
