Interceptive Orthodontics Course

This Interceptive Sato Orthodontics Course teaches you theory and practice a groundbreaking concept in Early Prevention Orthodontic Treatment.

It is based on the world-leading research of Prof. Sato. By applying these treatment principles, you will significantly reduce the amount of present malocclusion problems in children and long-term future dental and physical problems when they become adults.

This course on Interceptive Sato Orthodontics is a true gift for the children in your practice, or the children of your patients, which you could start to see. And it is a gift for any dentists aiming to expand their services to offer early diagnosis of malocclusion and highly impactful preventive and interceptive treatment solutions. Parents will highly appreciate your expertise.

Sato’s Interceptive Orthodontics
Lead the Paradigm Shift in Early Prevention Treatment

Independent of skill level in orthodontics, this 4-day course will enable participants to immediately implement a highly beneficial treatment approach into their practice, a comprehensive concept which is based on tremendous scientific evidence and decades of clinical expertise.

This advanced treatment concept works without any need for patient compliance, since it is based on fixed techniques and does not use removable appliances.

Sato Preventive Orthodontic Treatment which will make your practice to the Authority in Your Community

This Interceptive Sato Orthodontics Course is addressed to all dentists and orthodontists wanting to avoid anchorage of malocclusion and skeletal problems and to support the growth of children into a healthy.

We highly encourage General Practitioners, especially the ones who are new to orthodontics, to step into this topic because this treatment approach is sophisticated, but easy to learn, simple to apply, and to immediately implement into their practice.

Whether you are planning to preventively treat children or to refer out to orthodontists, this course is important to any dentist seeing children to learn to make the appropriate diagnostic decision and to initiate early occlusion treatment.

The New State-of-the-Art in Interceptive Occlusion Treatment

Prevention of malocclusion has been a long-addressed topic in interceptive orthodontics as it aims to support the skeletal and dental development of children and their craniomandibular system.

However, despite decades of research, reality shows that traditional orthodontics is still far from achieving this goal, because it is trapped by only taking some measures for apparent signs and not solving the essential problems of malocclusion during the growing stage.

Groundbreaking Concept for Early Prevention Orthodontics

In recent times, science in dental occlusion has undergone a significant shift. While former studies have concentrated on chewing, pronunciation, and appearance, research has established a direct link between occlusion, emotions, stress, and the autonomic nervous system. Consequently, the importance of occlusion in maintaining overall physical health has increased significantly.

In addition, for children, the focus has shifted from correcting malocclusion during a specific growth stage to reassessing preventive and interceptive orthodontic treatment as a means of lifelong health maintenance.

Under these considerations, the importance of early diagnostics and interceptive orthodontics cannot be addressed enough. Most importantly, treatment needs to follow a concept that identifies the true root cause and can direct growth into a healthy state with permanent treatment success.

Sato’s Craniomandibular Orthodontics – Comprehensive Dentistry

This interceptive orthodontics course provides a unique opportunity to learn about Sato’s Craniomandibular Orthodontics. Prof. Sadao Sato is the world’s most recognized orthodontist of our time today, and so is Roberto Velasquez, both directly collaborating in science and treatment development for over three decades.

This interceptive orthodontics course integrates functional aspects into early orthodontic therapy and emphasizes the significance of the vertical dimension, occlusal plane, and mandibular position, leading to treatment outcomes which are impossible to achieve with conventional orthodontic approaches.

Goals of Early Preventive Orthodontic Treatment

While malocclusion is induced by occlusion that causes mandibular displacement and associated dysfunction, the most relevant etiology is the abnormality of mandibular position. This is one of the main reasons why early occlusion treatment is very necessary.

The goal of interceptive orthodontics is to use the system’s adaptability to help patient acquire good function. The therapeutic key points are alteration of Vertical Dimension and Occlusal Plane and achieving a Physiological Mandibular Position.

Evidenced based. Simple to learn. Easy to apply. Highly Impactful.

“The IDEA Sato-Orthodontic Education with Roberto Velasquez, Prof. Sato, and Heike Kraemer is not competing with conventional orthodontics; it is a tremendous improvement over conventional orthodontic treatment.” – Bob Lamb*, Periodontist and Founder of IDEA.

Patient target group – Children of Any Age

The patient target group is children of any age. Children need to be observed dentally and skeletally from deciduous dentition through all phases of mixed dentition to early and final permanent dentition.

Based on functional diagnostics and simple mechanics, you will learn an easy to understand and efficient treatment concept that ensures proper teeth and jaw alignment, and guides growth and development into a healthy state.

Significantly Reduce Future Orthognathic Surgery and Premolar Extraction

Learn to diagnose and to treat any dental and skeletal problem:
> Class II/1, Class II/2 , Deep bites
> Class III High angle, Class III Low angle, Open bites
> Mandibular Lateral Displacement (MLD) , unilateral and bilateral crossbites
> Dysfunction and TMD, Airway, Speech, Posture
> Occlusion Medicine, Stress, Brain
 problems, …

This forefront treatment approach works through a combination of functional diagnostics, restorative overlays, and simple orthodontic wires. Patients’ compliance is not required.

Practice at the Forefront of Dentistry
