Computer Diagnosis and Planning course
Course by: Bill Arnett
Duration: 5 hours 30 min
Computer treatment planning may be a complicated and little understood procedure. Planning begins with CBCT orientation – if orientation is incorrect, the surgical result will be incorrect. This module explores and defines orientation and profile/frontal planning.
EXTRACT FROM THIS COURSE:
WHAT WE COVER IN THIS COURSE:
1. Facial Analysis Part 1
- How is facial change planned during bite treatment?
- Does facial analysis determine how to correct the bite?
- Does facial analysis determine where to place the class I bite in the face?
- What are cranial base cephalometric inaccuracies which may produce facial decline?
- Does cephalometric X-Ray orientation effect the facial result?
- Does steepening the occlusal plane produce profile imbalance?
2. Facial Analysis Part 2
- What determines where to position the class I bite correction?
- How is the patient postured for the frontal facial exam?
- Does the facial examination form list important measurements, norms, and possible treatments?
- What key vertical facial traits are measured?
- What are the 4 factors which determine the upper incisor exposure?
- Are the canines leveled to the pupils?
- What key facial outline traits are measured?
3. Facial Analysis Part 3
- Does the facial exam form list profile traits, norms, and possible treatments?
- What are the 3 profile projection groups?
- What are the 6 ways of increasing chin projection?
- Does the soft tissue cephalometric analysis quantify the clinical profile examination?
- What is the upper Lip Mirror test?
- What determines where to place the upper incisor tip?
4. FAB Cephalometrics
- Does FAB stand for face, airway, and bite cephalometrics?
- What are the true vertical line and natural head posture used to measure the face?
- How is the lateral cephalometric x-ray taken to avoid errors?
- Is FAB more reliable for diagnosis and treatment than Steiner and Ricketts?
- What 13 dental and skeletal measurements control profile esthetics and the airway?
- When upper lip projection is normal, how many millimeters is it behind the nasal tip?
5. Hands-On 2D VTO
- Does FAB stand for face, airway, and bite cephalometrics?
- How many dental and skeletal measurements determine the projection and height of the facial profile?
- How many steps are involved in the profile cephalometric treatment plan?
- Why does orthodontic lower incisor proclination lead to the need for chin augmentation?
- What determines where the maxillary incisors are placed in the face?
- What are the conditions necessary to only operate the lower jaw?
- What factors indicate the need for upper jaw surgery?
6. Hands-On 3D FAB
- What is the image library?
- How is computer surgery done accurately?
- What are the harmony numbers?
- Is the profile determined with cephalometric treatment planning?
- Is the frontal view treated by orientation of the volume?
- What is the source of profile treatment?
- What is the source of frontal treatment?
- What causes condylar torque?
