This course is not just about "how to" place brackets and wires in the straightwire system, but also the rationale and basis for the countless decisions one must make during straightwire therapy. Proper bracket positioning, mechanics, and treatment planning must be considered in order to get predictable results. We will review archwire progession, and finishing bends, with appropriate elastic wear.
