This study aims to assess the prediction of tooth movements with invisible aligner treatment which includes checking the accuracy of clear aligners for shifting teeth to desired position

Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: -permanent dentition upto 2nd molars completely erupted. -Subjects/cases at the stage of 1st refinement with an intra oral scan done at that stage (minimum 20 aligner sets to have been worn). -Good oral hygiene with Healthy gingiva and periodontium.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: -Teeth with less than total 2 degrees of planned movement at the 1st refinement stage. -Past medical history -Patient with supernumerary teeth or tooth anomalies -Tooth and bone related disorders including active periodontal disease -Incorrect 3D scans

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The mean accuracy of tooth movement with clear aligners is expected to range from 40% to 70% when compared between the predicted and clinical outcomes. However, clear aligners are advanced treatment methods/appliances in orthodontics that are affected by various factors as compared conventional Orthodontic appliances (braces) and need to combined with some added auxiliaries to improve overall treatment efficacy and clinical outcomes. Timepoint: The teeth positions/outcomes will be assessed at Base line and at 27 weeks.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The Results obtained from this quantified data would form a baseline for future research & applicability with other aligner systems. The quantification of actual & predicted outcomes while keeping the variable to a minimum & testing alternative aligner system with standardisation would provide insight into improvement of treatment results with Clear Aligner Therapy (CAT). Timepoint: 27 weeks
