Abstract
How can we make our aligner treatments work better?
Orthodontic treatment with aligners can produce a high-quality treatment outcome. As in all orthodontic methods however, there is a steep learning curve. The most crucial factor for the clinician is to take full control when planning and working in the 3-D software. We will focus on aligner biomechanics and how separate and stage difficult movements to increase the treatment predictability and efficiency.
The presentation is going to give an overview of treatment possibilities in different kind of malocclusions with aligners. Treatment of space deficiencies, open and deep bites will be shown and discussed. Further on, we are going to discuss and evaluate treatment quality, efficiency, and precision.
