Abstract
The 4th Japan Academy of Aligner Orthodontics 2017
- ＜Deep Bite: The Vertical Challenge＞
- Managing the vertical dimension during orthodontic treatment remains a challenge to the
treating orthodontist, despite the many advances in techniques and appliances being used.
Clear aligner therapy aids in opening up deep bite malocclusions with consistency, mostly due
to the occlusal coverage by the aligners. Dr. Daher will show clinical cases and will share tips
and techniques to help use the Invisalign system more effectively.
