TEOS in Warsaw | 11-16 MAY 2025

Strategy of treatment depends on the patient’s age, the severity of malocclusion, and the possibilities for dento-alveolar compensation. Therefore, managing Class II malocclusions in teens and adult patients also presents different biomechanical challenges that may require asymmetric mechanics, non-extraction, or extractions, skeletal anchorage, or orthognathic surgery. Our office is exclusively dedicated to orthodontics, prioritizing individualized patient care, and maintaining high standards of aesthetics and function in the results. The lectures during the course will focus on various Class II malocclusions, covering diagnosis and treatment planning, as well as the clinical management of different treatment strategies with the opportunity for open discussion. Participants will also have the chance to observe live patients, engage in hands-on typodont exercises, and gain insight into the workflow and organizational aspects of the office. We hope to welcome you in Aarhus along with AO
