Patient Chief Concern
anterior crowding

Clinical Indications

Class II div 1
Crowding
Deep bite
Narrow arches
Rotations

The patient exhibits a skeletal Class II malocclusion with a mildly retruded mandible and a half-Class II canine and molar relationship on the right side, presenting complex occlusal challenges. The narrow upper arch, anterior crowding, and pronounced deep bite required a meticulous orthodontic treatment approach to address functional and aesthetic concerns effectively.

Modalities

Distalization
Elastics: Class II
Leveling Curve of Spee
TADs

The treatment strategy for this patient involved using Invisalign treatment to create space through arch expansion, stripping, and distalization, effectively addressing the crowding issues. To establish a Class I occlusal relationship, Invisalign treatment was complemented with Class II elastics on the right side and elastics with a Temporary Anchorage Device (TAD) on the upper left side. These modalities leveraged the precision and comfort of Invisalign treatment, enhancing both the functional alignment and aesthetic outcomes of the orthodontic treatment.

Summary

Treatment with Invisalign aligners led to impressive results, completed in just 14 months. We achieved good alignment and a corrected dental midline, established a Class I relationship with normal overjet and overbite of the anterior teeth, and enhanced the smile line, ensuring proper exposure of the upper incisors. These outcomes not only reflect the effectiveness of Invisalign technology in addressing complex orthodontic needs but also provide the patient with a visually pleasing and functionally sound smile.
