College of Dental Medicine—Postdoctoral Programs 519 faculty members occurs daily. All residents are required to attend these conferences. The curriculum consists of clinical and didactic courses given through the department, as well as a core curriculum in which all postgraduate residents are enrolled. Residents are expected to be available 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday and certain evenings and weekends for scheduled conferences, lectures, and seminars.

Students will incorporate the knowledge gained from didactic studies, while providing orthodontic services for patients with a broad variety of malocclusions. Patients with typical malocclusions— those requiring early treatment, dentofacial orthopedics, orthognathic surgery, and/or interdisciplinary care—are selected as educational models. Techniques focus on standard edgewise technique including pre-torqued and pre-angulated brackets and lingual orthodontics. Various types of treatment approaches are presented. Orthodontic Didactic The orthodontic didactic courses include courses and seminars offered each semester. The courses follow the didactic process, fully developing a state-of-the-art understanding of contemporary orthodontics while being deeply built upon, the specialty’s historic foundations. The structure of the orthodontic didactic component of the curriculum continually contributes to residents developing a knowledge base, including evidence-based science, of sufficient depth and breadth necessary for proficiency in modern orthodontics.
