How has the use of aligners in treating children changed the approach of orthodontists
Warsaw, Poland | Speaker(s): Dr. Vittorio Cacciafesta80% of orthodontic treatments could be avoided if treated at an early age before the malocclusion sets in. Treatment with aligners in kids is specifically designed for children between 5 and 14 years old, to correct patients' malocclusions, both in primary as in mixed dentition. Thanks to 3D technology the aligners are custom made and are adapted as the patient grows. Aligners are made with a special material that adapts perfectly to the dental anatomy, thus avoiding discomfort of conventional devices.
