PY - 2018 DA - 2018/07/19 TI - Recommendations for clear aligner therapy using digital or plaster study casts JO - Progress in Orthodontics SP - 22 VL - 19 IS - 1 AB - Clear aligner therapy has evolved considerably since its introduction 20 years ago. Clinicians have become more experienced with aligner therapy, but little is known about the types of malocclusions that clinicians currently treat with aligners. Similarly, it is not known if viewing digital vs plaster models has any impact on the treatment planning process for aligners. The aim of this study was to assess which types of malocclusions are recommended for treatment with clear aligners, and also to determine if recommendations for aligner treatment differed when using digital versus plaster models.
