Course Synposis	In order to improve faults of the lingual orthodontic technique using the mushroom arch form which were complicated handling and arch wire bending, difficulty in upper and lower arch coordination, and to use simpler mechanics, Dr. Kyoto Takemoto have developed the lingual plane archwire (LSW) method since 1995. By using New STb and L.S.W. method, simple mechanics and less wire bending could make less technical difference between doctors and reduce chair time. For those reasons comfort for the patient’s can also be improved. In this 2-day-course, Dr. Kyoto Takemoto will talk from laboratory work to solution of clinical problems in L.S.W. method.
