Aim of the course

Last update: Bc. Lenka Bažantová (29.06.2023)

Results:

1. Student gets an overview of orthodontic anomalies, will be able to distinguish functional anomalie from pure esthetic conditions, the developmental distubances from other statuses. Furthermore as a general denstist the student will be able to set the correct orthodontic diagnosis and refer the patient to the orthodontic office in proper and effective time.
2. Student will be able to direct his attention to the development of mixed dentition, sequelae of eruption of permanent or milk teeth, and will be able perfectly find his bearings in orthodontic anomalies and eruptional disturbances.
3. Student is going to be able to follow up orthodontic treatment results, and fix lower or upper fixed retainers if necessary.
4. Student will be able to respond helpfully and correctly to the orthodontist ´s requests and find the solution within the framework of interdisciplinary treatment.
