Abstract
Clear aligners disrupted the orthodontic marketplace almost twenty years ago.
1.
The result of this disruption has been a significant increase in the demand for adult
esthetic orthodontic treatment.
2.
,
3.
Today, we are in the midst of another disruption in orthodontics; direct to patient
orthodontic care. Direct to patient care is a result of the evolution of digital orthodontics,
which has led to the development of custom orthodontic appliances. Besides the disruption
of the orthodontic marketplace, custom appliances also offer an opportunity to add
value to the care that we offer our patients through the development of appliances
systems that are superior in esthetics and in certain circumstances offer biomechanical
advantages
4.
In this paper, we will present issues related successful lingual mechanics, one of
the custom appliance opportunities available to us that add value to the care we offer
our patients. We will consider the problem associated with lingual mechanics and the
solutions offered by custom lingual appliance systems.To read this article in full you will need to make a payment
