Orthodontic Residents of FKG UGM Excel in Wire Bending Examination

The Orthodontics program at the Faculty of Dentistry, Universitas Gadjah Mada (FKG UGM), has once again demonstrated its presence on the national stage. On Sunday, 14 January 2024, the orthodontic residents of FKG UGM achieved top positions in the Orthodontic Specialist Competency Examination held at the Faculty of Dentistry, Universitas Airlangga (FKG UNAIR).

This competency examination encompasses various aspects, one of which is the Wire Bending Skill Test. This test is a crucial assessment that measures the residents' ability to shape orthodontic wires according to the clinical needs of patients. Precision in wire bending is essential in orthodontic treatment, as orthodontic wires serve as the primary tool for moving teeth into the desired positions.

In the Wire Bending Skill Test, FKG UGM's orthodontic residents achieved the following:

  • 2nd Place: drg. Irene Sanita Lanny, MPH., Sp.Ort
  • 5th Place: drg. Resty Kusuma Prabani, Sp.Ort

This achievement is a testament to the dedication and competence of FKG UGM's orthodontic residents in mastering essential clinical skills. The competency examination included residents from various prestigious universities in Indonesia, including Universitas Indonesia, Universitas Airlangga, and Universitas Hasanuddin. The assessments were conducted by an examination team consisting of lecturers and professors from various higher education institutions, including Universitas Sumatera Utara and Universitas Padjadjaran.

The Indonesian Orthodontic Association College (KIOI) acted as the organizer of this competency examination, while FKG UNAIR served as the host and local committee facilitating the event.

The accomplishments of FKG UGM's orthodontic residents result from a comprehensive education and training process, as well as a commitment to continuously improving the quality of orthodontic services. It is hoped that these achievements will inspire all members of the FKG UGM academic community to continue striving and contributing positively to society.
