In orthodontics it’s undeniable that improved smile aesthetics is one of the primary goals. However, when faced with malocclusions, it’s entirely possibly that patients may have functional problems as well and could be experiencing further complications such as issues with chewing.

Class II malocclusions are one of the most common problems presented among orthodontic patients, and they need to be treated predictably so that it is possible for patients and professionals alike to know what impact this will have on aesthetics and function. Additionally, it is important to consider how treatment may affect patients’ face shape and profile.

 Of course, much like any orthodontic treatment, treating these issues effectively comes down to using the correct appliance and encouraging  high patient compliance.

 

Make sure they follow your advice

Patient compliance is a core part of ensuring treatment achieves the desired results. Indeed, should patients fail to follow the guidelines that are given it is entirely possible for procedures to not be as effective, and this can result in compromised results and expectations not being met.

Therefore, when treating issues such as Class II malocclusions, it’s necessary to try to find a treatment that is effective, predictable, and easy for patients to understand and comply with.

 

An expert opinion

It is exactly this topic which forms the focus of the seminar that will be hosted by Dr Lisa Alvetro at Excellere 2019, by 3M Oral Care. Entitled “Predictable Class II Correction’, in her session Dr Alvetro will explain how using a bio-mechanical appliance such as the Forsus™ Class II Correction System from 3M Oral Care can help professionals to solve Class II malocclusions efficiently and with ease.

 

Dr Alvetro says:

“The Forsus Class II Correction System from 3M Oral Care allows professionals to combine effective alignment with the ability to simply correct Class II malocclusions. This treatment is highly predictable and helps professionals to effectively plot the desired position of teeth during planning so that treatment can follow the expected route.

“It’s also a very easy way to solve malocclusion issues so patients won’t have problems complying with the necessary steps to achieve their desired final aesthetics.”

When speaking further about products from 3M Oral Care, Dr Alvetro comments:

“I really rely on the knowledge of 3M Oral Care. As a company it is constantly striving forward in the field of orthodontics and looking to help improve treatments for professionals and patients alike.”
