Why Phase 1

Catch What Phase 2 Can't Fix.

Phase 1 — interceptive orthodontic treatment, typically 6–18 months, recommended for children aged 6–10 — addresses bite, alignment, airway, and oral habits while the jaw is still genuinely shapeable. Treat early, and Phase 2 in adolescence is shorter, simpler, and far less likely to involve impacted canines, premolar extractions, or jaw surgery. This course is the practical adjunct to Dr. Wong's Early Interceptive Postural Orthodontics — designed for general and pediatric dentists ready to add Phase 1 work to their practice.

"Phase 1 isn't an alternative to Phase 2. It's what makes Phase 2 manageable — or, often, unnecessary."

Phase 1 Treatment Overview

What interceptive treatment is, when it's indicated, and how it sets the trajectory for Phase 2 in adolescence.

Biotrainers — UConcept

Functional appliance principles for soft-tissue training, posture, and early arch development.

Transverse

Crossbites and narrow arches: diagnosis, expansion strategy, appliance selection.

Sagittal (AP) Issues

Class II and Class III patterns, overjet, negative overjet — how to correct in the mixed dentition.

Vertical

Open bites and deep bites: vertical control strategies and the appliances that deliver them.

Preventing Impacted Canines

Eruption guidance, early intervention windows, and the screening cues that catch this years before it becomes a surgical problem.

Crowding & Spacing — Aligners or Braces

Decision-making for crowding and spacing in the mixed dentition. When aligners win, when braces do.

Phase 1 Braces

Indications, mechanics, case selection, and the practical workflow for delivering Phase 1 with fixed appliances.

Phase 1 Aligners

Where aligners fit in Phase 1, the use cases they handle well, the limits to know about, and sequencing.

Phase 1 Space Maintenance

Holding arches after early loss — appliance options, timing, and what happens if you don't.

Phase 1 Retention

Stability after Phase 1 finishes: retention protocols, monitoring, and bridging into the Phase 2 conversation.

Moving Onto Phase 2

When and how to transition into Phase 2, what's typically simpler at this point, and how to refer when appropriate.

"As a General Dentist, I have found her expertise in orthodontics provides me with the confidence to treat an orthodontic case that will result in success. She remains on the pulse of the industry and provides valuable information to her fellow colleagues and other members of the dental community."

Diana B.General Dentist

"Amanda and her team are awesome, she literally helps you every step of the way. She has changed my practice by helping us launch our very own in-house aligner brand. I truly feel like we offer an overall better treatment for our patients now that we can straighten teeth position and fix malocclusion before placing implants and crowns."

Dr. Siona MotufauPractice owner

"Dr. Wilson is a fantastic resource for teams wanting to expand their orthodontic offerings in house. She is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled in not only training providers, but also their staff in all things ortho. She was instrumental in us launching an orthodontic program in rural Texas."

Does this course offer CE credit?

No. The Phase 1 Interceptive Course from Dr. Wilson we offer is non-CE and intended for self-study. If you need CE-accredited training, the bundle pairs this course with Dr. Wong's 2-Day Intro to Early Interceptive Postural Orthodontics, which carries 14 hours of CE via PACE/AGD (claim within 6 months of enrollment; recordings remain accessible for the full 12 months).

How long do I have access?

One year from your enrollment date. You'll have unrestricted on-demand access to all 12 sections and 93 videos for 12 months.

Who is this course built for?

General and pediatric dentists who are relatively new to orthodontics and want a structured grounding in conventional Phase 1 treatment — etiology, diagnosis, treatment planning, and the appliance toolkit. It's also valuable for clinicians already practising orthodontics who want a refresher in the early-intervention layer.

How does this fit with Dr. Wong's Postural Orthodontics?

This course teaches conventional Phase 1 — the mainstream methods most orthodontists use. Dr. Wong's Postural Orthodontics is a complementary approach focused on growth guidance and oral posture. The two are designed to work together: many clinicians enroll in both pathways for a complete early-intervention skill set.

What's the refund policy?

30 days, no questions asked. If the course isn't what we promised, email us within 30 days of enrollment for a full refund. Bundle buyers: CE for Dr. Wong's 2-Day Intro must be claimed within 6 months of enrollment; recordings remain accessible for the full 12 months.

Will I be able to start Phase 1 in my own practice after this?

Think of this as the foundational layer — an introductory course, not a clinical mentorship. You'll finish with a clear framework for Phase 1 (etiology, diagnosis, treatment planning, and the appliance toolkit) and the language to engage with case discussions confidently — but turning concepts into confident clinical case delivery takes more.

The natural next step is Dr. Wong's Advanced Training and Mentorship Program, which layers in supervised case work, live mentoring on real patients, and ongoing access to Dr. Wong directly. This Phase 1 course is best treated as the first rung on that ladder — or as the bundle option above, where the two pathways are designed to be taken together.
