Abstract:
BACKGROUND Clear aligners are orthodontic devices that are transparent, a plastic used to correct malaligned teeth. Here patient wears a series of customized clear, removable aligners that gradually move the teeth to the desired position. The clear aligner system is a modern adaptation of the systems described since the middle of the 20th century, therefore there were different devices and philosophies that have led to its creation and the system has evolved a lot over the decades. Clear aligner therapy has been a part of the orthodontic practice for years, but, popularity was increased since

As the demand for aesthetic treatments is increasing, more people are seeking alternatives to fixed orthodontic appliances. Clear align­ers are aesthetically pleasing and comfortable option for orthodontic treatment and have gained immense popularity over the last decade. Moreover, with increasing demand there has been a constant attempt for cost reductions by number of aligner companies and laboratories. It will be beneficial not only to orthodontist but also to patients if aligners can be fabricated in-house itself. Thus, this review will highlight the fabrication of In-house aligners in det

The clear aligner treatment in the last years has been increasing its relevance and use. The use of aligners to treat malocclusion has had a remarkable surge in the last decades, a growing interest has been reported for such methods of invisible orthodontics, especially among adult patients. Clear aligners are orthodontic devices that use elastic thermoplastic material, applying pressure to the teeth to move into the aligner’s position, being an alternative to dental braces. They are esthetic, efficient, and comfortable compared to a traditional fixed appliance for mild-to-moderate malocclusio

Abstract:
Aesthetics is a major factor in Orthodontic treatment and it is a primary concern among patients seeking orthodontic treatment. To meet the growing aesthetic desire for an alternative to traditional braces, researchers have created a variety of alternatives, including ceramic or composite braces, lingual orthodontics, and transparent aligners. Clear aligner therapy is a treatment that consists of a set of clear dental appliances that are custom-made to fit the contour of a patient's teeth.

Abstract:
In the process of orthodontic treatment, root parallelism is related to the relapse of extraction spaces, black triangles, and periodontal health. However, there are few studies on root parallelism in extraction cases with different types of appliances. The objective was to compare the root parallelism in extraction cases treated with clear aligners vs. those treated with fixed appliances by measuring the differences per extraction site and to access the root-movement control capacity of both orthodontic appliances. A retrospective study was conducted on cases in which the first premolars were

Abstract:
Orthognathic surgery and orthodontic treatment are required for patients with dentofacial deformities to obtain an ideal facial esthetic with good functioning. Recently, characterized by the surgery-first approach, an integrated orthodontic–surgical treatment has been introduced as an emerging solution to dentofacial deformity treatment. The surgery-first approach is regarded to have less treatment time and quicker enhancement of a facial profile than the conventional orthodontic–surgical treatment. Moreover, the recent advances in computing and imaging have allowed the adoption of 3-dimension
