Should any provisions of this contract be held or become invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision hereof. In such a case, the contracting parties undertake to negotiate a valid provision in place of the invalid provision, which comes as close as possible to the economic purpose of the original provision. This applies mutatis mutandis in case of potential gaps.
17.1. The course participant of the seminar series “www.csorthoschool.com” undertakes to conscientiously follow the course plan and to complete the training. The more orthodontic cases are started in the course participant’s own practice, the higher the implementation of the knowledge gained in the seminars is.
17.2. The seminar series “www.csorthoschool.com” provides the course participant with the knowledge presented in the curriculum using a theoretical approach and practical training to reach the training objective. This knowledge is implemented all the better the more case studies from the course participant’s own practice are jointly diagnosed and discussed. To ensure that every course participant benefits from this, the documents of the case studies from the own practice are only accepted in digital form, preferably on a flash drive which they bring to the course or into the forum of the platform. Ideally, the documents should be comprised of:
– all tooth and profile photos from the beginning and, if possible, the photos showing the progress of the treatment.
– photos of the first model plus progression models, teleradiography and panoramic x-rays, if any (the cephalometric x-rays do not have to be traced).
