Results achieved

  • Normal overjet and overbite achieved
  • Midlines coincident
  • Arches aligned and coordinated
  • Arch form improved

Comments

  • Invisalign first with molars expanded first then C's, D's and E's
  • Space created then refined to capture the UR2 which came in ectopically
  • The UL2 came in slower and we will refine if need be to capture and align it
  • When the delivery of the initial aligners was to occur, the LLB had not exfoliated. I placed an elastic around it and it fell out in 2 weeks.
  • The patient then began with aligner 3 on the lower and upper and great expansion in the lower arch was achieved
