Yes. Our courses are currently only for Dental Practitioners / Dental Surgeons (DP).

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.
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.
