School of biomechanics in orthodontics

Course Overview

Presented by Giorgio Fiorelli, Patricia Vergara, and Kleber Meireles, this practice-oriented course builds orthodontic biomechanics knowledge from fundamental theory through to genuine clinical application. Rather than treating biomechanics as abstract physics, the course connects each principle directly to executable clinical technique.

The curriculum covers essential bending protocols and cantilever usage for both mandibular and maxillary cases, along with impaction treatment technique — an area where biomechanical understanding directly determines whether traction forces move a tooth safely and predictably. Each lesson builds toward practical execution of complex orthodontic treatment methods.

Across 9 video lessons and over 13 hours of content, the course gives orthodontists a genuinely practical biomechanics education, spanning bending technique, cantilever mechanics, and impaction management.
