Description
Growing Smiles Congress 2026
Advanced Training in Early Orthodontics with Clear Aligners
The Growing Smiles Congress 2026 It represents a biennial scientific meeting of reference for dental professionals interested in the evolution of early orthodontics through the use of innovative, effective and non-invasive tools.
The conference was created to provide a structured, 360° clinical perspective based on scientific evidence, clinical experience, and the integration of the latest digital technologies.
The innovative format, already tested in the first edition, makes it as useful and effective as a course: targeted presentations on a single topic, a logical didactic thread, practical tips & tricks, and concrete clinical cases.
All you need to embrace early orthodontics with the modern and comprehensive approach dictated by Integrated Digital Orthodontics: news and specific insights on the ALIGNERS technique for children, diagnosis of neurofunctions, growth, myofunctional therapy, patient journey and a special FOCUS: after the focus on breathing in the 2024 edition, this 2026 edition will delve into the topic of frenulums, diagnosis, timing and non-invasive therapy.
The key to success explained step by step.
And after that? Don't miss the wild one Growing Party immediately after the Gala Dinner Friday night, or the refined Aperitif At the end of the Congress on Saturday evening at the OGR! Opportunities to experience and share.
