7th Annual Portland Surgical Orthodontic Lecture
Dr. Felice S. O'Ryan
February 10-11, 2009

The past three decades have witnessed tremendous advances in the management of patients with severe dentofacial deformities. Orthognathic surgical procedures have been refined, distraction osteogenesis has been introduced, and patients have become much more aware of the benefits of combined surgical and orthodontic treatment.

In an effort to update the orthodontic and surgical community on the contemporary management of patients with dentofacial deformities, provide a forum for continuing education, and introduce novel approaches that give patients access to affordable surgical care, Head and Neck Surgical Associates announced the creation of the Portland Surgical-Orthodontic Lecture Series. Begun in the fall of 2003, through the generous support of the Synthes and Stryker-Leibinger corporations, “The Portland Lecture” is presented annually by nationally and internationally recognized surgeons and orthodontists in an effort to review the latest concepts in surgical-orthodontic treatment.
