At Confident Orthodontics in Taunton, we believe that exceptional patient care starts with continuous professional development — and our very own Dr Helen Griffiths has once again demonstrated that commitment by travelling to Milan, Italy, to take part in a prestigious four-day advanced biomechanics course led by renowned aligner expert Dr Susana Palma.
1. A course focused on advanced aligner treatment:
The intensive programme, titled “Biomechanics with and without Auxiliaries. Multidisciplinary Cases. TADs, Asymmetries, Trouble Shooting and Finishing,” explored some of the most complex aspects of aligner treatment planning and execution. Over 28 hours of in-depth sessions, Dr Griffiths refined her skills in:
– Biomechanics for complex aligner cases — both with and without auxiliaries
– Use of Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADs) in multidisciplinary orthodontic treatment
– Correcting asymmetries and challenging cases
– Finishing and troubleshooting to achieve outstanding aesthetic and functional results
2. Learning from one of Europe’s leading aligner experts:
Dr Susana Palma is widely recognised as one of the leading educators in clear aligner biomechanics. Her evidence-based approach and deep understanding of complex tooth movements have made her courses some of the most sought-after in Europe.
For Dr Griffiths, this was not only an opportunity to deepen her technical expertise but also to bring back valuable insights to further elevate the quality of care offered to Confident Orthodontics patients.
“It’s always inspiring to learn from experts like Dr Palma. Every course like this helps us deliver even more precise, predictable, and comfortable treatments for our patients,” says Dr Griffiths.
