About the course

Elastodontic Therapy and Functional Rehabilitation is a one-day course focused on a contemporary orthodontic, functional, and postural approach to malocclusions. The event examines the role of elastodontics in growing and adult patients, with a strong emphasis on early intervention, functional balance, and stable occlusal outcomes. It is especially relevant for clinicians seeking more biological and interdisciplinary treatment solutions in daily practice. The course is suitable for dentists and orthodontists who treat children, adolescents, and adults with functional, skeletal, and dental malocclusions. It is best suited to participants with a clinical interest in orthodontics who want to deepen their understanding of early treatment, myofunctional therapy, and structured therapeutic planning. Participants can expect a practice-oriented review of bioorthodontics, elastodontic therapy technique, the AMCOP appliance system, and treatment sequencing for different classes of malocclusion, open bite, and crossbite. Special attention is given to the relationship between elastodontics, occlusion, temporomandibular disorders, speech therapy, and physiotherapy. The event is led by Dr. Filippo Cardarelli, creator of Elastodontic Therapy®, which gives the course strong expert value and a direct link to the original method.
