Top Ten Lessons I Have Learned in Orthodontics
Richard McLaughlin, D.D.S.
AAO 2015 San Francisco, CA
TOP TEN LESSONS I HAVE LEARNED IN ORTHODONTICS
1. Diagnosis and Treatment Planning
2. Importance of Staff
3. Bracket Placement
4. Arch Form
5. Non-extraction Cases
6. First Bicuspid Extraction Cases
7. Second Bicuspid Extraction Cases
8. Surgical Considerations
9. Finishing
10. Retention
The greatest challenges in orthodontics are in the area of diagnosis and treatment planning
1 4/8/2015
THIS CAN INCLUDE:
1) Incorrect diagnosis and/or treatment planning
2) Lack of acceptance by the patient
DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT PLANNING
• 60% - 20% - 20% Rule
• Can be very time consuming
• We need an efficient and accurate system
ACHIEVING THE GOAL
A systematic approach to each
aspect of treatment
2 4/8/2015
DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT PLANNING CHALLENGES
• Presentation of surgical cases
• Presentation of extraction cases
• Presentation of IPR cases

Why is this occuring
and
is there a solution?
Cephalometrics should provide
objective back-up to
subjective observations
