Comments

  • Treatment plan was to expand both arches to improve the narrow arches
  • Procline the upper and lower incisors
  • The overbite was improved by the virtual intrusion due to proclination of the anterior teeth
  • The most challenging issue to be solved was the rotation of 4.5 that had to be rotated more than 52 degrees
  • I planned to do this rotation with the help of a button placed on lingual of 4.6 and lingual of 4.5 which was very efficient
  • In my opinion what was important in this case is taking the bite records and pictures of the initial situation by centering the mandible (centering the midlines) and setting the starting point of the treatment from this position, this helped to reduce the number of aligners for the first stage
