Early Orthodontic Treatment at AGpO Meeting in Memphis

This past weekend I was at the the Academy of GP Orthodontics Annual Meeting in Memphis Tennessee. One of my classmates from dental school, Dr. Keith Wilkerson, a pediatric specialist,  was there to lecture on interceptive orthodontic treatment for the children in our practices. In some cases early treatment provides better outcomes for later orthodontic treatment or even eliminates the need for braces completely. Keith has some techniques that we are starting to use at the office.  He teaches a year long early treatment class in Austin that I hope to attend  late in 2016 after I finish the CIRP program in Alabama.
