Jeez, as a fellow ortho I'm pretty surprised to hear you voice such extreme opinions like "you should never be doing extractions" and "you should never be placing TADs" as you know the human individual has great variation and different treatment mechanics exist to treat individual treatment needs which at times absolutely appropriately warrant extractions and/or TADs
If you follow my channel it's for GENERAL DENTISTS! And I preach that harder cases should be referred to ortho- that's why I say that. You took it out of context. You aren't the intended audience! :) Of course SOMETIMES extractions are needed, but I am teaching primary care dentists how to screen / do Phase 1/ Mitigate airway issues/ Treat simple cases- refer the rest out!
But you know as well as me, that there would be almost no extraction cases or jaw surgery cases if things were done properly and addressed as kids. Of course, you're going to have generic issues and syndromes and pathology but the percentage would be significantly less. That's the legacy I am trying to leave with my channel.
