Overview ACAS2020 is our second clear aligner symposium after the massive success of ACAS2019 in February. ACAS2020 will be for all who are interested in the clear aligner space
ACAS2020 is our second clear aligner symposium after the massive success of ACAS2019 in February. ACAS2020 will be for all who are interested in the clear aligner space – from Dentists to Orthodontists, OHT and support staff such as managers or nurses. ACAS2020 will feature 5 lecture streams to have a broad variety of education around the clear aligner space. We are expecting a huge turnout after what we experienced at ACAS2019 – Secure your spot today and benefit from the EARLY BIRD SPECIALS in combination to the ACAS (Australasian clear aligner society) membership to save even further.
The symposium will run from the 21st to the 22nd of February 2019 with a workshop on the 23rd of February at additional fees.
THE EVENT IS ADVERTISED AS BEING AN IMPARTIAL CLEAR ALIGNER SYMPOSIUM. WHAT DOES IMPARTIAL MEAN?
For a long time, any kind of aligner education has been specific to a certain system. The sole aim of this symposium is to openly educate about clear aligners, and not a specific brand. This concept is best demonstrated through a dental example.In endodontics, some practitioners are interested in learning, say, the “ProTaper” system, whereas some practitioners are interested in learning the core principles of endodontics. They are interested in learning how to use certain techniques to achieve their desired result and how to integrate them into their practice. Additionally, when attending specific system based training, some presenters may be muted due to the nature of the course.
Depending on your involvement in clear aligners, it may or may not surprise to know there are more than one hundred clear aligner manufacturers in the world. It may also surprise you that the fundamental concepts of treatment remains the same for all clear aligners. We strongly believe that the clear aligner market will continue to grow at an exponential rate and the time is now to learn about clear aligners: what they can do, what they can’t do, biomechanics, how to implement them in your practice and how to succeed in the field. All aligner companies being used in Australia will be invited to have a booth at the symposium trade-show room but under no circumstance whatsoever will there be financial or other influence as to what is said and presented at this event by any clear aligner company. We have worked extremely hard to secure the very best, educational and engaging speakers in the field to present at our symposium. Each clinician invited to speak about aligners comes with enriched knowledge from their case experiences, which means they have a wealth of knowledge about aligners and are ready to share it with us.
WHO CAN ATTEND THE COURSE?
The course is best suited to clinicians who are currently using clear aligners as well as those who want to begin using clear aligners. Auxiliary staff including OHT, dental assistants and admin may also find some aspects of the course beneficial.
