Why study Orthodontics?

The Orthodontics program covers all basic and applied aspects of the discipline, through a combination of lectures, seminars, tutorials, clinical training and case presentations.

These areas of study include cephalometric theory and practice, craniofacial anatomy, development and morphology, biological force systems and their application, radiology and radiography techniques. Major clinical pursuits include orthodontics, diagnosis and management of dental and craniofacial anomalies, cleft lip and palate, and interdisciplinary management of complex malocclusions.

Your clinical work will be undertaken at the Oral Health Centre on UQ's Herston campus and in conjunction with teaching hospital facilities such as the Cleft Clinic at Queensland Children's Hospital, and orthognathic surgery through the Maxillofacial Unit (Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital).
