Abstract

This issue of seminars revolves around digital orthodontics and showcases cuttingedge technology. It's not just a trendy new concept; all authors strive to add a balanced opinion and clinical conclusions to evaluate if this present technology is merely a hype feeding our FOMO or if it indeed provides significant advantages to patients and doctors alike. The digital orthodontics wave has been rolling on for over a decade. The spread of scanners, printers, and connecting software is visible in every country. Reasons to push and justify this hype—beyond the financial interests of companies—often include a lack of skilled employees, more complex cases, economic pressures, and the hope that automation might solve many challenges
