We are passionate about helping dentists treat children for airway issues in their practice, which is why we are offering multiple pediatric dentistry training events to help you implement pediatric airway treatment in your practice.
Upcoming Pediatric Dentistry Training Events
Dr. Courtney Lavigne – Weekly ClinCheck Reviews
Mondays at 8:30 PM ET | 7:30 PM CT | 6:30 PM MT | 5:30 PM PT
This membership provides weekly opportunities for ClinCheck reviews with Dr. Courtney Lavigne, who specializes in orthodontics. On Monday evenings from 8:30-9:30PM EST Dr. Lavigne will review ClinChecks of ASAP members. Members participating in this program will be given the opportunity to sign up for a specific case to review ahead of time, and cases will be reviewed in the order they were signed up. As many ClinChecks as time allows will be reviewed, and those not reviewed will be rolled to the following week. Not only will you be able to receive aid on your own ClinChecks, but learn by watching case after case of your colleagues’ ClinChecks as well.

The Important Role of Orthodontics in Management of TMJ and Airway Issues
Friday, March 11th, 2022 – 11AM-6:30PM ET
Recent advancements in technology and research have allowed dentists to understand the role underlying conditions, including temporomandibular joint and airway disorders, play in the development of malocclusion. Armed with this knowledge, dentists have a unique opportunity to not only determine the root cause(s) of the malocclusions we see in our practices, but to also contribute to the design of interdisciplinary treatment plans directed at benefiting TMJ and airway health and stability. Through case presentations and overview of current research, this lecture will provide a complete picture on how to use CBCT and MRI technologies to identify, diagnose, and categorize patients prior to treatment. There will also be heavy focus on how to sequence treatment based on TMJ and airway condition, and design patient-specific therapy to maintain the health of the TMJ and airway for the long-haul.
Form Follows Function
Tuesday, March 29th, 2022 – 8:30PM ET
A lack of mastication and freedom in movement are trapping bites in kids. Combined with deficiencies, allergies, and breathing disorders, this limits the proper vectors of growth in the face. When thinking in Biofunctional dynamic occlusion, we start by stabilizing the mandible position through different techniques, such as direct tracks of Planas, to be able to create freedom in the mandible. This verticalization pattern in combination with the freedom of movement creates a better osteogenesis. By applying friction plates, we can stimulate facial growth based on angulations of pathway directions. This lecture will cover different techniques that can be employed in Biofunctional Dynamic Occlusion where the arch of closure creates the biodynamics for proper muscle balance and joint stabilization.

Introduction to Postural Orthodontics
A new evidence-based approach to early intervention orthodontics; 45 consecutively treated cases reveal the 7 steps to straighter teeth, beautiful faces and better airways. Topics covered during this presentation include: the origins of postural orthodontics, 52 tooth treatment plan, environment vs. genetics, function vs. posture, health care, good oral posture exercises, and the real world results.
