Description

Study models in orthodontics are taken to record the initial/baseline malocclusion of the patient. They may be used to allow a more accurate assessment of the malocclusion and facilitate measurement. Good study models will show all the teeth, with well-defined sulci. The models are trimmed in the laboratory so that when placed on their ‘heel’ the teeth are in the patient’s intercuspal relationship. Within this course you will learn how to create Orthodontic Study Models to the standards outlined by the American Board of Orthodontists. Also, you will see how to digitally store these physical models.
