Comments
- Upper and lower wisdom molars were extracted pre-Invisalign treatment.
- The lower wisdom molar extraction is a requirement in this treatment due to lower arch sequential distalisation planned at ClinCheck treatment plan.
- The hyperexpansion of upper right first premolar was corrected planning lingual movement with simultaneous torque control.
- We planned sequential lower arch distalisation to correct the class III molar and canine into class I molar and canine.
- Lower arch sequential distalisation provided space in order to retract lower anterior teeth and therefore correct crossbite of upper lateral teeth.
- The anterior overjet created allowed us to retract upper incisors and therefore correct dental biprotusion.
- Patient collaboration during total treatment time was excellent wearing full-time (22 hours/day) aligners and class III elastics.
