Invisalign First

Patient Chief Concern
Protrusion of upper incisors.

What learning would you share with other Invisalign providers?
This is the treatment of a patient who came at just the right time. Since the permanent teeth erupted quickly, I was able to complete the alignment of all permanent teeth as a first treatment option. It has truly been the best gift for the patient.

What contributed most to this treatment being successful?
There is no need to deliberately adjust the start time of treatment; however, if a well-planned strategy is set at an appropriate stage, it is possible to achieve a very high level of satisfaction with the outcome.

Summary

By expanding the arch, I was able to effectively align the protruded teeth. In the past, resin plates had certain limitations, and even with braces, I believe that additional anchorage (such as TADs) is essential for this type of correction. This case serves as a prime example of the advantages Invisalign First clear aligners can offer.
