Therapy Continuum
The experienced faculty offers personalized mentoring to help students provide definitive treatment for their patients. Focus: Prosthetics and Applied Rehabilitation in Function and Aesthetics.
Orthodontic Continuum
Prof. Sadao Sato developed the MEAW (Multiloop-Edgewise-Arch-Wire) technique which has proven highly successful for corrections of malposition of the teeth, as well as the denture frame analysis defining the relation between occlusal plane and jaw-facial skeleton.
Focus: Orthodontics in Craniofacial Dysfunction.
Exclusive Tutorial – Dr. Alain Landry
This exclusive tutorial is designed for dentists seeking to treat more complex cases of Cranio-Mandibular Disorders (CMD). The course covers essential concepts of Professor Slavicek, electronic condylography, computerized cephalometry, with a particular focus on Controlled Mandibular Repositioning (CMR), a method developed by Dr. Alain Landry in 1994.
Advanced Condylography Tutorial
Clinical Instrumental Analysis (Condylography) has proven to be a crucial element in the diagnostic approach in interdisciplinary dentistry. The non-invasive method of Condylography monitors the individual patient movement of the mandible within 6 deg. of freedom. In the center of interest stands the translator and rotatory component of hinge-axis movement.
Focus: Clinical procedures and diagnostics of Condylography.
Therapy Continuum
Content
The goal of the Therapy Continuum is to lead participants through the entire therapeutic prosthetic process, starting from the basic initial findings. The final diagnosis is followed by defining treatment objectives and an initial management plan for the patient and overall therapy. Occlusion concepts, the function of the masticatory system, and aesthetics must be integrated to achieve long-term stability in prosthetic rehabilitation. Key topics include splint therapy, pre-prosthodontic orthodontics, full dentures, pre-prosthodontic implant, temporization, and final restoration. Participants will be instructed in the VieSID prosthetic concept.
Structure
The course is divided into Level I and Level II. The courses in Austria are organized in collaboration with the University Clinic of Dentistry at the Medical University of Vienna. The sessions take place in the state-of-the-art facilities of the university clinic and utilize the latest equipment..
The Level I course is divided into four modules, each module lasting for three days.
The Level II course is divided into four modules, each module lasting for three days.
Topics
- Final diagnosis and creating a management plan
- Diagnostic equilibration
- Initial treatment: splint therapy
- Diagnostic wax-up and digital functional smile design
- Full denture occlusion setup
- Wax-up ‘mal-occlusion’
- Pre-prosthetic orthodontics
- Pre-prosthetic implantology
- Therapeutic provisionals
- Final prosthetic implementation
Target Group
- Applicants for this course must have successfully completed the Basic Curriculum
- Applicants need to present 3 fully documented cases, according to VieSID standards.
Orthodontic Continuum
Content
According to Prof. Sadao Sato’s concept, the primary emphasis of this orthodontic course is to provide diagnostic and therapeutic methods to the trainees. The Continuum focuses on theories related to the development and treatment of malocclusion, fundamental concepts of gnathology, and orthodontic practice. Throughout this course, all participants are encouraged to present their own patient cases, receiving support from the instructors and the course director to elaborate on all necessary treatment steps.
The modular structure of the Continuum ensures that participants are guided through the entire treatment process.

Upon completing the course, participants will undergo an examination and receive a diploma for successfully completing the program.
The course consists of Part I and Part II:
Part I: 6 modules (module A consists of 4 days, module B-F consists of 2 days each).
Part II: 5 modules (module A consists of 4 days, module B-E consists of 2 days).
Topics
- Theories on the development of malocclusion
- Orthodontic practice
- Fundamental concept of gnathology
- Treatment of malocclusion
Target Group
- Applicants for this course must have successfully completed the Basic Curriculum
Advanced Condylography Tutorial
Content
Condylography recordings are beneficial for programming the condylar housing of semi- and fully adjustable articulators, aligning with individual patient movement patterns. The data can also be utilized to assess the mobility and motility of the temporomandibular joints (TMJs). A clinical-instrumental preliminary assessment of the functional status can be conducted based on standardized movements, such as protrusion, mediotrusion right and left, and open/close. Habitual functional movements (such as bruxing, speech, swallow, etc.) can be analyzed and integrated into instrumental analysis in the articulator.
Structure
The courses in Austria are organized in collaboration with the University Clinic of Dentistry at the Medical University of Vienna. The sessions are held in the state-of-the-art facilities of the university clinic, equipped with the latest technology.
The course consists of part A and part B (each part consists of 2 days, which can be booked seperately)
Part A focuses on hands-on-sessions. SSplit into groups of a maximum of 5 persons, participants have the opportunity to delve into the advanced procedures of clinical condylography in detail.
Part B is designed as a lecture where participants learn the basic principles of condylography diagnostics, occlusion and TMJ.
Topics
- Clinical procedures of condylography
- Condylography diagnostics
Target Group
- Applicants for this course should be familiar with Condylography
Exlusive Tutorial – Dr. Alain Landry
Content
In CMD cases regarding internal derangements (ID) and degenerative joint disease (DJD), these approaches are ineffective and sometimes ill-advised. Hence, Controlled Mandibular Repositioning was developed by Dr. Alain Landry to enhance the success rate in cases of internal derangement and degenerative joint disease. This program empowers dentists to gain new knowledge and cultivate additional competencies that can be integrated into the core of their practices for the well-being of their patients.
