ORPT 830 Head and Neck Anatomy

This course revisits head and neck anatomy, and offers a unique opportunity to visualize first-hand the tissues that the orthodontist directly and indirectly affects with treatment. The course reviews the pertinent, anatomical head and neck structures and systems in lecture and seminar format. The understanding of treatment modalities associated with craniofacial anomalies and dentofacial deformities are enhanced due to knowledge gained through these lectures. The course is augmented by a Netter’s Head and Neck Anatomy Atlas on this subject, and does not include dissection.
