Abstract

Management of space problems is an important factor in the mixed dentition. The Clear Aligner can carry out minor tooth movement with no brackets bonded to the teeth. In addition, it can provide tooth movement for the following: crowding resolution, space closure, arch expansion or constriction, space maintenance or regaining, intrusion or extrusion, guidance of the eruption, and other interceptive orthodontic treatment.
