Treatment Timing with an Emphasis on Class II Treatment    
 Dr. Tiziano Baccetti
Dr. Baccetti has devoted 15 years of research work to the evaluation of the impact of "Time" in dentofacial orthopedics. Treatment timing is the fourth dimension in orthodontics, and it is defined by the developmental period in the life of the patient when orthodontic treatment is started. Dr. Baccetti has used the facilities at both the University of Florence, Italy, and the University of Michigan in order to test several clinical and experiential hypotheses related to the role of treatment timing, especially through the implementation of the Cervical Vertebral Maturation Method. He has received several international rewards for his results in this field of orthodontic research.
  The outcomes of orthodontic treatment depend strongly upon the biological responsiveness of individual patients, which in turn is related to treatment timing. The course will highlight the role of individual skeletal maturation (assessed by means of the Cervical Vertebral Maturation - CVM-method) on treatment outcomes in different types of malocclusions as well as the importance of considering patient craniofacial morphology for the anticipation of outcomes of dentofacial orthopedics. The participants will learn fundamental aspects related to an evidence-based approach to orthodontic treatment as a function of treatment timing. The core of the course will be devoted to the implementation of the concepts of individual patient responsiveness in different areas of clinical orthodontics with special regards to Class II and transverse discrepancies. The speaker will describe the short-term and long-term results of dentofacial orthopedics in relation to treatment timing as derived from over 15 years of clinical investigations.
