Encyclopedia of the Planas concept: comprehensive training for orthodontists and dental technicians
Course overview
Encyclopedia of the Planas concept — comprehensive online training for orthodontists and dental technicians! Thanks to the training, the “orthodontist-dental technician” team will receive a complete protocol for working with these appliances. Dental technicians will learn how to make various versions of the Planas appliance, and orthodontists will learn to select the appropriate appliance for the clinical situation and repair it themselves.
Course lecturers Carlos De Salvador Planas and Orlando Santiago Junior are leading followers of the legendary Pedro Planas.
