Over 1,400 orthodontic professionals from 32 countries attended the 15th annual event held in February in Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif.

Forum 2016 featured workshops addressing beginner to advanced content on passive self-ligation mechanics, finishing, open bites, Class II and III treatment, digital smile design, and practice enhancement. In addition, the clinical mentoring sessions, introduced this year, offered attendees collaborative discussion opportunities.
