The Basic ALF Lab Course

LAB : Learning About the Basics

One of the most rewarding aspects of ALF Therapy is the provider's ability to completely customize the appliance designs based on the needs of the patient and modify as treatment progresses.


One of the most challenging aspects of ALF Therapy is the provider's need to able to support the occasional repair or mid-treatment modification without depending on the dental lab to support patient care without lengthy interruptions of waiting for repairs to be completed at the lab. 


In order to meet the growing needs of our ALF Therapy community, we are creating a course designed both for the dental laboratory technician and dental provider who is interested in learning how to modify and repair some of the most basic ALF appliance designs.
