Multidisciplinary Educational Seminars

Educational seminars have been held, though on an irregular basis, to expand the members’ knowledge. These include two orthognathic surgery seminars by Dr. Schendel (April 2001, November 2002), an implant seminar by Dr. Rosenberg (March 2002) and a TMD seminar by Dr. Isberg (October 2005).

Dr. Schendel Surgical Seminar

We held two seminars by oral and maxillofacial surgeon Dr. Stephan Schendel, in April 2001 and November 2002.

Held in October 2005. Following this, she also delivered the keynote lecture at the 10th Anniversary Open Seminar of the study club.

Orthodontic–Oral Surgery Orthognathic Session

In December 2012, we invited oral and maxillofacial surgeons who collaborate with our study club members and held an orthognathic session involving both orthodontists and surgeons. This provided an opportunity to deepen communication and mutual understanding.

Seminar by Dr. Jorge Ayala

Held in 2019. This seminar was conducted for the Japanese members at the Roth Study Club International meeting held in Los Angeles immediately following the AAO. Dr. Ayala, who serves as an instructor for the two-year course in Japan, has a close relationship with all the Japanese members, and provided the latest and most up-to-date topics, further deepening mutual exchange.
