Rondeau Seminars

Rondeau Seminars is a highly respected and long-standing institution in the field of dental continuing education, based in London, Ontario, Canada. It was founded by Dr. Brock Rondeau, a prominent clinician who has dedicated over 35 years to practicing and teaching orthodontics, orthopedics, TMD (Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction), and snoring/sleep apnea. Dr. Rondeau is a Diplomate of the International Board of Orthodontics, the Academy of Clinical Sleep Disorders Disciplines, the American Board of Craniofacial Pain, and the American Board of Craniofacial Dental Sleep Medicine. He has published over 30 articles in various dental and orthodontic journals and authored chapters in medical and dental textbooks. The core mission of Rondeau Seminars is to empower general and pediatric dentists to confidently diagnose and treat a wide range of orthodontic and related issues, thereby expanding their practice offerings and improving patient care. They are particularly known for their comprehensive Level 1 Orthodontics course, which is a 4-session, 8-day program designed to teach dentists how to treat simple orthodontic cases, with a strong emphasis on thorough records and diagnosis. This includes the use of functional appliances in mixed dentition and fixed orthodontic braces (straight wire technique) in permanent dentition. Beyond orthodontics, Rondeau Seminars also provides extensive training in TMD and sleep apnea, recognizing the interconnectedness of these conditions with orthodontic health and overall patient well-being. Their courses cover various aspects, including early orthodontic treatment, case finishing techniques, clear aligners, myofunctional therapy, and staff training to ensure a holistic approach to practice integration. Rondeau Seminars offers flexible learning options, including online courses that allow dentists to complete training at their own pace from anywhere in the world, as well as in-person seminars and mini-residencies that include hands-on patient treatment opportunities (subject to licensing requirements). They are recognized by the International Association for Orthodontics and the Academy of General Dentistry for continuing education credits, making their programs valuable for professional development. Testimonials from past participants consistently highlight the clarity, comprehensiveness, and practical applicability of the courses, often citing significant positive impacts on their practice and patient outcomes.
