Abstract

Since its induction in 1997, the Invisalign® appliance has vastly evolved through the years. Having used this appliance since inception to its current form, we have learnt much through trial and error and accumulated much experience. The product had advanced substantially since the days of only treating simple Class I malocclusions. It is now possible to treat multiple extraction cases, skeletal asymmetries, as well as, surgical and non-surgical camouflage cases. This article summarises the experiences of two specialist orthodontists who had spent time to perfect the system through understanding the biology of tooth movement, and also utilising smart biomechanics to bypass the inadequacies and further enhance the patient and clinician׳s experience in using the appliance.
