Message from Dr. Kenji Ojima to Dr. Francesco Garino Introduction
I met Francesco Garino for the first time in 2010 when I attended the Invisalign 10-year anniversary celebration in Italy at which he was the keynote speaker. His presentation was truly impressive. He was one of the first doctors to fully implement the iTero scanning system. He had and has published many papers on iTero scanning. I had been under the impression that dental models could not be done digitally. Using iTero however,
Dr. Garino showed me and the rest of the world that digital model’s from scans could be used to do Invisalign treatment planning, ushering in a new digital age in orthodontics. After watching his presentations in 2011 and 2012 I insisted that he come share his wisdom in Japan.
Since his participation in the JAAO in 2016, I’ve had many opportunities to collaborate with him
and have been amazed at the depth of his orthodontic tool box. He is always thinking about how to streamline and simplify Invisalign treatments and his presentations are always informative.
[2017 JAAO Presentation]
Dr. Garino’s presentation this year is going to be great. He will be talking about treating Class II cases in Teenagers and specifically will talk about how to use hybrid appliances, treatments beyond Invisalign alone, to simplify and increase the effectiveness of Invisalign treatments. He will talk about not only the strengths, but the limitations of Invisalign treatments, and how to use other appliances to fill in gaps in effectiveness. I sincerely hope a large number of doctors come to learn from his masterful approach.
