Treatment in the Spotlight
We would like to congratulate Dr. Lagunilla Ruiz with winning the Scientific Symposium 2019 Peer review awards!
Dr. Quote: “I wanted to show with this treatment that a class II case which many classical orthodontists would have solved with extractions of 1.4 and 2.4, can be solved using Invisalign, performing the alignment and the mandibular advancement simultaneously, in a short period of time and without the need for extractions, with a good treatment planning and thanks to patient's collaboration”.
