Rafal Brandt obtained his diploma from the Warsaw Medical University in 2004. From 2007 to 2009, he began his specialisation in orthodontics at the Institute of Mother and Child in the Cleft Clinic, where they focused on treating children with congenital deformities, including clefts. In 2009, he continued his specialisation at the Warsaw Medical University Orthodontics Department. In 2012, he passed the specialisation exam with the second-highest result in Poland. For the past 13 years, he has been exclusively dedicated to orthodontic treatment. Currently, he works in two renowned dental clinics in Warsaw, where he enjoys collaborating with numerous specialists from various dental fields. They treat challenging cases by developing comprehensive, interdisciplinary treatment plans. In his practice, he often utilises various forms of skeletal anchorage. He primarily uses palatal micro implants within the Benefit system, having placed the highest number in Poland. He has also designed his modifications to this system to reduce its side effects. Two years ago, he developed a method for digitally designing and printing templates for micro implants. Using templates for screw placement significantly increased the precision and safety of the treatment.
