Clear aligners have become very popular, and eventually, this type of treatment will often require the use of traditional fixed orthodontic techniques to complete the case. To help facilitate this, Dr. Lau and Dr. Lacson are teaching how to integrate traditional orthodontics with clear aligners, covering everything from bracket selection to mastering simple cephalometric analysis, in a three-day seminar. Participants will leave with a protocol they can implement immediately. Such a three-day course typically costs between $3,000 and $4,000. The more advanced orthodontic protocols at the IAO 2026 Annual Meeting offer valuable education, including Dr. Ellen Manalang’s Function Orthodontics and Dr. Gamalie Urbi’s non-surgical approach to severe Class III Malocclusion.
The IAO Annual Session also features well-known international speakers, including Dr. Dave Singh’s lecture on Upper Airway and TMD and Dr. Ramirez-Yanez’s lecture on Children’s Obstructive Sleep Disorder.
The IAO annual can save you thousands of dollars, not to mention the added attraction of Orlando, where you and your family can enjoy. IAO welcomes your presence. Sing Up
