This course expands upon the orthodontic theory and laboratory skills from the past three semesters. While expected to maintain the previously achieved orthodontic competencies, students will design, fabricate, problem solve and self-evaluate additional complex fixed and removable orthodontic appliances. Pre-learned material is independently reviewed, studied and formally assessed through a written theory examination that supports success in practicum and on written licensing examinations after graduation.
This course is part of the full-time Dental Technology Program.
