Dr. Tom Pitts on Advanced Orthodontic Techniques for the Perfect Smile
Manage episode 429131917 series 2499378
Like many other orthodontists, I've long admired the work of Dr. Tom Pitts. So I am thrilled to have the opportunity to sit down with him for a second time to discuss his approach to creating exceptional smiles.
Dr. Pitts explains that the Wow Factor goes beyond just straight teeth. It's about creating smiles with full incisal display, a harmonious smile arc that follows the curve of the lower lip, and an arch form that is wide and free of buccal corridors.
But it's also about the proper inclination of teeth with upright incisors, cuspids, and molars that come together in a beautiful, natural-looking bite.
Dr. Pitts has found that achieving the wow smile can be challenging in some cases. These include those with deep bites, short lower facial heights, and prominent facial features.
This is where Dr. Pitts' Pitts 21 system helps. With precise bracket positioning and following specific wire protocols, you can achieve optimal results.
Dr. Pitts' passion for pushing the boundaries of what's possible in orthodontics is inspiring to all of us. Tune in to learn more from the legend himself.
