By identifying potential challenges early, dentists can set realistic expectations, minimize refinements, and improve patient satisfaction. This blog explores a systematic approach to evaluating case complexity, treatment predictability, and contraindications for clear aligners. Why Assess Case Complexity? Aligners excel in certain orthodontic corrections but are less predictable for complex movements. A thorough assessment helps: Identify refinement potential  – Plan for additional aligner sets if needed. Optimize treatment plans  – Overengineer movements prone to undercorrection. Avoid unpredictable outcomes  – Modify plans to prioritize achievable results. Enhance patient communication  – Align expectations with...

One of the major components of fixed orthodontic therapy is the choice of wires. Orthodontic wires are defined as devices comprising a wire conforming to the alveolar or dental arch, which is used as an anchorage for correcting irregularities in the position of teeth . Therefore, the aim of the this assignment   was to focus on the differences in the features of wires as well a...

To Angle’s Classification It is when the buccal groove of the 1 st Mandibular molar occludes distal to mesio-buccal cusp of 1 st maxillary molar with retroclination of maxillary central incisors. Acc. To British Standards classification (Incisor relationship) The lower incisors edgs occlude posteriorly to the   cingulum plateau of the upper incisors &   the lower centrals are retruded (due to lack of stops) Sub-types Type A : Maxillary centrals and      laterals are retroclined. Type B : Maxillary Laterals overlapping the retroclined centrals . Type C : Maxillary centrals and laterals areretroclined and are overlapped by max. canines.   Criteria Extra Oral features : - Shape of head : Brachycephalic - Facial Profile : Convex...
