Why learn with Myofocus?
Dr Dan has been using Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy (OMT) for over 10 years and has taught hundreds of professionals over the years how to implement it into the clinics.
He has also been treating Tethered Oral Tissues (Tongue and Lip ties) for over 10 years. He has treated over 15,000 surgical cases between surgeries in Brisbane, Gold Coast, Melbourne and Central Coast.
Dan is one of Australia's most experienced 'TOTS' surgeons. Not only has he learned the theory and practical aspects from the best 'TOTS' and OMT educators in the business. He has successfully incorporated 'TOTS' surgery and OMT for all age groups into busy dental practices and know how to make it work both for the patient, the team and the business.
With the Myofocus “Take Off’ algorithms program we have created a method which is easy to follow, highly effective and world-renowned having delivered 'Take Off' OMT educational programs in multiple countries including Australia, USA, Japan, and Malaysia.
You will learn over 70 different exercises and more importantly you will be coached on when to use each exercise while still keeping every OMT treatment plan bespoke for each patient. No patient is the same, and no ideal OMT plan is the same either. Therefore, you will learn how to tailor the plan according to clinical need.
Educational tools will include live demonstrations, videography and the unique ‘Take Off’ algorithms which tell the user which exercises to use according to the specific overall muscular dysfunction of the patient at that moment in time. ‘Take Off’ algorithms enable the practitioner to key in a specific code for the dysfunction and generate an appropriate treatment plan - so you will go away from this course with pre-made treatment plans which are written according to the patient’s specific treatment need.
You will download 180 different treatment plans which correspond to 180 different dysfunction algorithm codes. This makes implementation more efficient and enhances the patient experience.
All you need to do is have the skill to diagnose the dysfunction and learn how to ‘tweak’ the plans as needed.
Whether you are new to myofunctional work, or whether you are an experienced practitioner, this is a great chance to learn about the trademarked 'Take Off' algorithms.
