Speaking
Lectures and courses on clear aligner treatment
I have lectured at more than a hundred meetings, study clubs and residency programs across North America and Europe since 2019. Formats run from a one-hour webinar to a two-day hands-on course. Every talk is built on cases from my own practice.
Topics
What I teach
Aligner biomechanics
Force systems, anchorage and the mechanics behind predictable movement. Delivered as a lecture or a two-part series.
ClinCheck design, step by step
Setting up a plan from the prescription forward. Live design on real cases.
Hands-on 3D Controls
A working session in the software. Participants build and modify plans.
Complex cases: surgery and extractions
Case selection, staging and the decisions that determine whether an aligner case holds together.
Growing children and teens
Mixed dentition treatment, Invisalign First, expansion and the transverse evidence.
Troubleshooting deep bite
Why deep bite cases stall with aligners, and the mechanics that resolve them.
Treatment visualization and case acceptance
Using visualization in the consult, so patients decide from what they can see.
Building a clear aligner curriculum
Structuring a year of aligner education for orthodontic residents.
I adapt talks to the audience. Tell me who is in the room and I will tell you what fits.
