Comments

  • I think the key to success for this young patient was the good cooperation between the patient himself, his mom, and me.
  • He wore Invisalign clear aligners almost 20 hours a day.
  • Also, with the help of optimized expansion attachment, I created enough space for his erupting permanent teeth and a better harmonious smile.
