Take control of every phase of treatment — from bonding to finishing.
Eight hours of dense, recorded clinical orthodontics: bonding, wire bending, retraction biomechanics, anchorage and space management — the forces behind each decision, not another prescription.
If any of this sounds familiar, this is the gap.
"I feel my tx take too long" — treatments drag on for years because problems were never anticipated, only reacted to.
Retraction that loses inclination halfway through, leaving incisors tipped and the case blocked.
"Wire bending" — insets, offsets and step bends feel like guesswork, so you avoid them and lose control of moments.
You rely on the bracket prescription and hope for the best — and the same complications come back, case after case.
Finishing that never quite settles: weak intercuspation, unstable results, retreatment conversations.
Total control of the movement — not another prescription.
Across four parts, Prof. Kleber works through the biomechanics behind every phase of fixed-appliance treatment: force, moment and couple applied to bonding, bending, retraction, anchorage and space management. You learn to anticipate problems before they block the case — which is exactly what shortens treatment.
- +Reduce treatment time by anticipating and managing side effects early, instead of correcting them at the end
- +Retract with translation or controlled inclination on purpose — including six anterior teeth simultaneously
- +Select wires for torque control during retraction (19x25 SS vs. 17x25 in a 22 slot) instead of by habit
- +Manage Class II elastics’ side effects — lower incisor flaring and anchorage loss — before they appear
- +Finish with solid intercuspation and a profile planned from facial analysis, not discovered at debond
What is inside, module by module.
01Part 1 — Bracket Bonding, Alignment and Levelling
+
Part 1 — Bracket Bonding, Alignment and Levelling
Where control begins: bracket position decisions that determine the mechanics of the entire case.
- Direct vs. indirect bonding — and avoiding composite excess
- Bracket and tube centralization/decentralization for Class II and Class III cases
- Checking and changing bracket height and angulation in special cases
- Principles of force, moment and couple
02Part 2 — 1st and 2nd Order Bends, Canine Retraction
+
Part 2 — 1st and 2nd Order Bends, Canine Retraction
Wire bending as a clinical tool, not a lost art — with the moments each bend generates.
- Insets, offsets and Z-bends with pliers
- Step bends for intrusion and extrusion, and the moments they create
- Slow extrusion technique for periodontal bone loss and bone-level correction
- Retraction biomechanics: translation, controlled inclination and loops
03Part 3 — Space Closure Phase: Retraction and Anchorage
+
Part 3 — Space Closure Phase: Retraction and Anchorage
The phase where most cases stall — managed with counter-moments, anchorage and wire selection.
- Managing moment of force with counter-moments via bend and loop design
- Anchorage with mini-implants (TADs) and differential forces
- Retracting six anterior teeth simultaneously
- Wire selection for torque control: 19x25 SS vs. 17x25 in a 22 slot
- Archwire modification to manage friction
- Real vs. relative torque during retraction
- Class II elastics: lower incisor flaring and anchorage management
04Part 4 — Space Management and Finishing
+
Part 4 — Space Management and Finishing
Closing or opening spaces deliberately, and finishing with the face in the plan.
- Space closure and opening strategies, anterior and posterior
- Molar tube selection for Class I and Class II finishing
- Integrating facial analysis — profile and nasolabial angle — into the plan, especially in Class II
- Periodontal health before and during orthodontic treatment
- Individualizing mechanics to the patient’s anatomy and specific problems
Prof. Dr. Kleber Meireles.
Orthodontist, international speaker and creator of the KM Orthodontic Diagnosis and Treatment Planning System. Specialist in Orthodontics at USP Bauru, professor and coordinator of postgraduate orthodontics programs, co-creator of the Centrex System published in the Dental Press Journal.
His teaching is built on one premise: cases that used to take four to five years can be resolved in under two — not through talent, but through diagnosis and biomechanics applied as a method.
Built for a specific clinician.
- +Orthodontists and postgraduate students who want a deeper working command of biomechanics
- +Clinicians treating complex Class II cases, including mandibular deficiency
- +Practitioners managing periodontal bone loss who need controlled, slow movement
- +Anyone who wants to improve finishing quality and long-term stability
- −Clinicians who believe orthodontics is inserting wires into pre-programmed brackets
- −Anyone looking for a magic prescription instead of understanding the forces they apply
- −Practitioners unwilling to pick up pliers and learn wire bending

Before you ask.
Is the masterclass in English?
+
Yes. The full 8-hour recording and all materials are in English, made for an international audience of orthodontists.
How long do I have access?
+
One year of full access to the complete recording, on any device, to watch and rewatch at your own pace.
Is this for experienced clinicians or beginners?
+
It assumes you already treat fixed-appliance cases. The content goes from bonding decisions to retraction mechanics most prescriptions never address — postgraduate students follow it well, but it is not an introduction to orthodontics.
Does it cover anchorage with TADs?
+
Yes. Part 3 covers anchorage with mini-implants and differential forces, including the retraction of six anterior teeth simultaneously and friction management.
How does it differ from Straight to the Point (Live Class 2)?
+
This masterclass covers bonding, alignment, bends, retraction, anchorage and finishing. Straight to the Point goes deeper into space closure, the curve of Spee and progressive mechanics. Together they form a complementary 16-hour intensive.
What if it does not change how I control my cases?
+
Watch the masterclass, apply the protocols, and if it does not change how you control your cases, request a full refund within 15 days.
Total control of the movement — not another prescription.
