Dr. Yoon-Ah Kook DDS, PhD

In this presentation, the following main topics will be addressed. First, the method of distalization and which appliance to use will be introduced. Next, the biomechanics underlying total arch distalization, including evidence-based values for how much distalization to expect will be discussed…

The Orthodontic 'Hare & Tortoise' Story: A Reality Check on Accelerated Tooth Movement

THE CARRIERE MOTION APPLIANCE IN CLASS II CORRECTION

In treatment of class II cases the palatal plate is a highly effective appliance, which can be easily placed and managed by orthodontists…

In treatment of class II malocclusion the temporary anchorage device (TAD) is a highly effective appliance, which can be easily placed and managed by orthodontists. A simple method for class II correction with TAD will be introduced for efficient molar distalization with a near-bodily movement…

In treatment of class II cases the multi-purpose C-palatal appliance is a highly effective device, which can be easily placed and managed by orthodontists…

For expanding the boundaries of non-extraction treatment, molar distalization is one of the most important key factors for successful outcome…

The session will discuss the application of MCPP for correction of Class II malocclusion in combination with clear aligner therapy. In addition, it will describe simple and efficient biomechanics for non-extraction treatment using MCPP and ramal plate in Class II bialveolar protrusion patients…
