On-line Course synopsis
Based on extensive knowledge of the mechanisms governing the growth and development of the facial skeleton, supported by many years of clinical research at the University of Barcelona we offer to show you:
A protocol for the diagnostic procedure of the motor functions of the oral cavity based on the coding of the functions of: breathing, tongue mobility, swallowing and others. Management strategies to help you achieve positive results in treating patients in the period of growth and development, during fixed appliance therapy, as a palliative treatment. The practical application of MFS stimulators in the treatment of growing patients with motor disorders of the oral cavity area showed that we can change the direction of craniofacial growth by influencing specific muscle groups through stimulation. Oral motor disorders in a cascade manner change the distribution of muscle tone, disturbing the motor activity of other parts of the body. According to the life motto of the creator of MFS stimulators, prof. Duran "Think more, work less", we will share our knowledge and experience with you, showing you how to deal with new problems or the ones you might have came across.
According to prof. Robert Rickets (Bioprogressive theory),
prof. Jean Delaire creator of the Delaire mask,
prof. Melwin Moss (Matrix theory of Growth),
prof. John Mew (Orthotrophy),
prof. Jose Duran von Arx (Multifunctional Oral Function Philosophy - MFS Philosophy)
We will not achieve permanent results after orthodontic treatment, without restoring muscle balance as the primary function of nasal breathing.
With his scientific achievements, prof. Duran meets these assumptions, showing a new perspective on this common problem, showing new opportunities not only for orthodontists, but also for pediatric, ENT specialists and neurologists.

Aim of the training is to teach effective work with the patient who present motoric
dysfunctions of : breathing, swallowing, reduced or increased muscle tone. Recognition of
skeletal and dental defects. Preparation of anatomy and phisiology issues will allow to
effective work with MFS system. The program includes 3 modules, an exam. The
participant who passes the exam receives the title of MFS orthodontic therapist.
The training is addressed to: doctors, speech therapists, occupational therapists,
physiotherapists, psychologists, educators.
Leaders: Profesor Jose Duran von Arx, lek. stom. Monika Ośko Master Universitario di Orthognatodonzia clinica Avanzata, Dr of Health Sciences Marta Wawrzynów
Form of training: theoretically-practical training
Number of hours: 100 teaching hours
Number of people: min. 15, max .25.
Training program is conducted in accordance with the proprietary program of prof. Jose Duran von Arx, lek.stom Monika Ośko, dr nauk o zdrowiu Marta Wawrzynów.
The participant signs the declaration of participation in three modules.
there is no possibility to participate in selected modules. Only after completing the third module and passing the practical exam, the participant gets the qualification to work with the MFS system and the title of the FUNCTIONAL ORTHODONTIC THERAPIST MFS.
