The Great Orthodontic-Periodontic Relationship
Exploring the Orthodontic-Periodontal Interface

The relationship between orthodontics and periodontology are diverse and complex. Prior to embarking on orthodontic treatment, it’s essential to establish optimal periodontal health in these patients. Effective management of perio-ortho patients demands a strong collaboration between the general dental practitioner and the orthodontist.

Dr Mahony will present a clinical case study so come with your questions at the ready! This is a not to be missed webinar for all practitioners involved in orthodontics and periodontics.

Dr Derek Mahony
Specialist Orthodontist
Derek Mahony is a Sydney based Specialist Orthodontist who has spoken to thousands of practitioners about the benefits of interceptive orthodontic treatment. Early in his career Dr Mahony learned from leading clinicians the dramatic effect functional appliance therapy can afford patients in orthodontic treatment. He has been combining the fixed and functional appliance approach ever since. His lectures are based on the positive impact such a combined treatment approach has had on his orthodontic results and the benefits this philosophy provides from a practice management viewpoint.
He currently has over 3000 orthodontic patients in active treatment and has been a key note speaker at the International Orthodontic Summit meetings, the International Association of Orthodontics meetings, and the American Association of Functional Orthodontics meetings. He is considered by some to be the "next leading lecturer on functional/fixed orthodontics."
