OVERVIEW:
Drs. Larry and Will Andrews will teach the Andrews Six Elements™ Philosophy
Course.
This course picks up where the Six Keys and the Standard Straight-Wire Appliance
left off. When that material was first presented in the 1970s, there were few,
if any post-treatment occlusions that were as good as orthodontists wanted them
to be. The Six Keys to Optimal Occlusion and the associated naturally optimal
tooth-measurement study, brought science to what tooth positions and
relationships should be. The Straight-Wire Appliance was developed from those
studies and, when properly prescribed and sited, it provides the delivery system
to achieve the Six Keys to Optimal Occlusion with few, if any archwire bends.
Orthodontics is growing up. Today we have the methods to provide more than just
straight teeth. Now we take into consideration the health and appearance of the
entire orofacial complex. If we expand our services as much as we can within the
milieu of dentistry, then good occlusion is only one of six diagnostic and
treatment responsibilities.
CONTENT:
In the 3-day course, you will learn a complete orthodontic philosophy including
the Six Elements of Orofacial Harmony.™ The Six Elements™ are to facial harmony
what the Six Keys are to oral harmony. Treatment delivery is accomplished with
the Straight-Wire Appliance System. Verification is achieved with mounted casts.
The Occlusofacial Simulator Articulator System, a new articulator designed
specifically for orthodontists, will be demonstrated. The Six Elements and many
aspects of the Andrews® Philosophy are now being taught to the residents of 9
U.S. Orthodontic Departments, and the University of Vienna, Austria.

course please return the enrollment information, mark your calendar, and make

receipt of your enrollment.
COURSE LOGISTICS
Morning sessions are didactic. That time is used to teach the full gamut of
subjects that comprise an orthodontic philosophy, including: objectives, goals,
landmarks, referents, concepts, precepts, policies, diagnosis, treatment
planning, treatment strategies, materials, and terminology. Afternoons are
hands-on and include learning to use the Six Elements goals, referents, and
landmarks for diagnosis; the Andrews Philosophy for treatment planning;
appliance prescription; and treatment strategies. Bracketing, TMD treatment,
cast-mounting, forces, and wire-forming strategies are also a part of the
curriculum.
