Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics™ (Wilckodontics®) At Nova Southeastern University

Fort Lauderdale, FL •Saturday, January 30, 2016, 7:30 a.m. - Sunday, January 31, 2016, 5 p.m.

BE THE FIRST IN YOUR AREA TO PERFORM WILCKODONTICS!!

Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics™, Wilckodontics, is a new procedure designed to greatly accelerate the movement of teeth via orthodontic braces. You will learn how to customize the minimally invasive in-office surgery and enhanced orthodontics to complete minor to severe malocclusions in 1/3rd to 1/4th the time typically required for traditional orthodontics. This is often highly motivating for adolescents and adults who have been reluctant to proceed with orthodontics because of the length of time needed for the treatment.The resulting increased alveolar volume will lessen the need for extractions, permit facial recontouring, and provide for proven long term stability.

Wilckodontics is named after the dentist brothers (an orthodontist and periodontist) who developed it. They refer to their procedure as Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (AAO). Using a couple well established periodontal techniques, the bone surrounding the teeth is “softened” and simultaneously grafted. The softened bone allows the orthodontist to move teeth quickly into their proper alignment. The grafting material in a few months time converts into strong bone, which supports the straightened teeth and a beautiful smile.

The Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics™ course will entitle you to become a certified/licensed Wilckodontics® provider and you will be noted as such on the Wilckodontics® website.

Dr. Wilcko along with his brother Tom, a periodontist, has been working on the Accelerated Osteogenic OrthodonticsTM procedure for over 6 years.
His previous research experience was in the fields of organic and inorganic chemistry. Through both animal and human research Dr. Wilcko has been instrumental in the development of several dental cements, one of which is an endodontic sealer that has been on the market for 17 years.

Learning Objectives
• How to apply this patented orthodontic treatment and patented devices to treatment plan and complete full and partial cases in 1/3rd to 1/4th the times required for traditional orthodontics in both adolescents and adults with a decreased number of adjustment appointments.
• How to readily treat difficult scenarios in an in-office setting by being able to move teeth 2 to 3 times further in most spatial relations and yet still potentially provide for a 2- to 3-fold increase in 10 year post treatment stability
• How to decrease the need for orthognathic surgery and accomplish minor facial reshaping for improved lip posture.
• How to forcible erupt deeply impacted palatally positioned canines very rapidly and how to include this in overall treatments.
• How to customize the surgical design for each case to provide for the desired movement and outcomes
• How to maximize the alveolar augmentation to provide for a structurally complete periodontium in which the roots of the teeth are sandwiched between intact layers of bone and to also provide for an increased width of gingival attachment.
