Restorative Driven Orthodontics: 2 Day Workshop

Dr. Salvatore Lotardo and Dr. Marina Ambridge have collaborated for many years on complex cosmetic cases, combining extensive training in orthodontics and implant dentistry. Through this collaboration, they identified a common challenge among cosmetic dentists: apprehension around orthodontics often limits ideal cosmetic and restorative outcomes. To address this gap, they developed practical, in-house orthodontic techniques using braces—specifically tailored for cosmetic dentists—that are straightforward, efficient, and immediately applicable without requiring formal orthodontic training or referrals.

These techniques will be taught in an upcoming two-day course taking place June 12–13, 2026, in Roslyn, NY.

If you want it tighter, more academic, or more marketing-forward, I can tune it like a classic handpiece—steady and precise.

Implementing orthodontics into your restorative, implant, and cosmetic dentistry is essential for achieving successful outcomes. This 2-day course will provide you with the knowledge to evaluate cases that will benefit from integrating orthodontics into your smile design and restorative treatment planning. The hands-on portion of the course will teach you bracket placement, wire progressions, mechanics, and the skill set needed to accomplish key tooth movements in your practice on Monday.
