Orthopaedodontics?
Have you as a dentist ever wondered what to do with a young patient with a crowding at the age of 8?
Whether you are consulted for treating the malocclusion or you merely realise it during routine dental treatment, you instinctively know that it is your duty as a medical professional to do all within your power to treat your patient even though you don’t know how to achieve this.
It drives you crazy to send the patient away to wait for permanent teeth and does not feel right to take out some primaries or sticking an expensive removable appliance in his or her mouth, well knowing that it will probably get “lost” on purpose or accidentally.
We KNOW the feeling and have answers for you!
Intercepting these problems early will improve the popularity and profitability of your practice. Not even mentioning an immense job satisfaction in being able to treat these patients and establishing yourself as part of the modern trend towards prevention.
As you start seeing the amazing results, you will change your outlook on Maxillofacial Development and Interceptive Orthodontics forever. Fall in love with Orthopaedodontics as we did more than 20 years ago by taking part in this amazing concept of Facial Growth Management as researched by pioneers like Ricketts, Wilson&Wilson and Opperman et al.
The excellent results of this mainly extraction-free, -surgery-free approach that are accomplished with our Proprietary Fixed Appliances is the benchmark of Orthologics TM and also the fastest growing discipline in Facial Growth Management.
Join the hundreds of satisfied colleagues practising Orthopaedodontics under the ongoing guidance of our team.

FAQ’s
Are these courses only for dentists?
Yes. Our courses are currently only for Dental Practitioners / Dental Surgeons (DP). We are planning a separate and comprehensive course for Oral Hygienists (OH) and Registered Dental Assistants (DA) who would like to further their knowledge in the field of Orthopaedodontics and there is still more to come for Dental Students!
Can I do the course again next year?
Your can do our Orthologics TM Courses every year as each series has yearly and unique accreditation number. We also aim to keep adding and expanding on our available Curriculum. We want to help Colleagues achieve their yearly CPD quotas effortlessly!
What are Orthologics Affiliates?
Our Orthologics Affiliates are Doctors that have completed our full 6 Month Orthopaedodontics Training Course with Hands-on and Clinical Days. These individuals have become “Certified Practitioners” by distinguishing themselves in this field. We keep in contact to further our knowledge and sometimes study more complex cases. Most of them consult us on a weekly basis with their own cases for treatment guidance, custom appliance fitting and online support. Having access to this sizeable network of Affiliate Practitioners, we now refer patients to them when we have requests from people who live too far from our sister practice and Training facility “The Ortho Studio” in Hartbeespoort. We are expanding this network every few months and are planning to identify Orthologics Partners that will form part of our company and treatment system.
Unique Class of Orthodontics?
We teach General Practitioners a type of Ortho that we would rather describe as “Orthopaedodontics” (Orthopaedics + Orthodontics). It is actually a special FACIAL GROWTH PROGRAM with two phases utilizing FIXED APPLIANCES first to promote Orthopaedic Jaw Correction and then only ends in Orthodontics. We also aim to finish cases with no tooth extractions and no jaw surgery.
Are cources fully CPD Accredited?
All of our Orthologics Courses (including the free ones) are fully CPD accredited by Stellmed (Stellenbosch University Medical Division). You will always have access to your CPD certificates on your Course Profile for your convenience.
When can I access my Study Material?
As long as you maintain a valid User Profile on Orthologics’ Website, all your bought and free Courses that you enrolled for will show your Videos, Course Slides, Study Notes, Certificates and Stats that will be available on your “My Account” page to download or to view.
How are tests marked?
Following the prescribed standard for CPD Courses, our tests are multichoice questions which makes it very easy and near instant to mark tests and post your results. No waiting periods or pending updates.
Can I use any device?
Yes you can! We have built the site to be simple to use and responsive to give you the ability to access all features on any device that has a good internet browser such as Brave, Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome. As long as you have a stable internet connection for viewing content and to stream our videos, you will be able to sign up and study our short (Blog) and online courses ANYWHERE!
For our Full 6 Month Training Program (“Orthopaedodontics – The 4 Dimentsions of Success”) there are however in-person Hands-on and Clinical Days that will have to be attended but the tests will still be written online at the Course Venue.
Where do I get ongoing training and support?
We are very passionate to help Medical Professionals have continuous access to great training and up to date information in the field of Early Interceptive Orthopaedodontics. We have a dedicated team of people that are loyal to this cause and eager to help with any requests and queries that you might have.
