Orthodontic treatment with Invisalign system: the use of high technology in tooth movement

Leda Maria José Monguilhott e Gustavo Zanardi.

The search for more pleasant smiles has greatly increased the number of adults seeking orthodontic treatment. Advances in technology have expanded the range of possibilities in the modalities of orthodontic planning and treatment. The clear aligners (e.g. Invisalign system) seem to meet these expectations and also allow the patients to perform an adequate oral hygiene, since that are removed during meals. The objective of this article is to demonstrate, by means of two case reports, the results achieved through orthodontic treatment with Invisalign system and to discuss the main indications, limitations, advantages and disadvantages of the technique.
