Crossbite of #23
What learning would you share with other Invisalign providers?
Successful crossbite correction can be achieved without cross elastics by using occlusal fake attachments to provide adequate disocclusion and creating intentional space around the tooth in crossbite to facilitate its movement.
What contributed most to this treatment being successful?
Successful correction of the 2.3 crossbite was achieved by using occlusal fake attachments on the posterior teeth to provide adequate disocclusion, while creating sufficient mesial and distal space around 2.3 to facilitate its movement out of crossbite.
