1 4/8/2015 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. 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

2 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
