Dancing Teeth

Dr H has emailed me his proposed treatment plan. The part that I can understand best is the video clip of how the teeth will move around the mouth. Some teeth have to move to create space for others to be straightened. The final stage looks good - well-spaced straight teeth. To make this happen, he also plans other attachments. Some are small ledges stuck to the side of the tooth which give the aligners extra purchase. Others are small knobs on the teeth which will hold elastic bands which apply extra forces on the teeth. The aligner will also stick out behind the upper front teeth to form a small platform the lower front teeth will rest on, which will help close the overbite.I have agreed the plan so now the thirty or so sets of aligners have to be made in California which will take a couple of months.
