Speaker: Sebastian Baumgaertel, DMD, MSD

Topic: Contemporary Applications of TADs

Synopsis: As Dr. Baumgaertel stated 20 years ago, TADs are here to stay. In fact they are more
popular than ever. How we use TADs, and what we use them for has fundamentally changed
over the years however. In this fast-paced lecture Dr. Baumgaertel will provide an overview of
current best practices and popular indications for TADs. From simple direct anchorage, to more
refined indirect anchorage, to anchoring maxillary expanders (MARPEs), this lecture

Learning objectives:

  • Understanding various TAD indications
  • Designing effective TAD-based biomechanics
  • Use of custom and semi-custom MARPE
