Clear aligner therepy – A review

Aesthetics is a major factor in Orthodontic treatment and it is a primary concern among patients seeking orthodontic treatment. To meet the growing aesthetic desire for an alternative to traditional braces, researchers have created a variety of alternatives, including ceramic or composite braces, lingual orthodontics, and transparent aligners. Clear aligner therapy is a treatment that consists of a set of clear dental appliances that are custom-made to fit the contour of a patient's teeth. Clear Aligners are an alternative to traditional braces that are used to guide teeth into appropriate alignment. Clear aligners, like braces, utilise a progressive force to regulate tooth movement, but without the need of metal wires or brackets.
