Invisalign treatment with teeth removed in a youngster

Initial Records

This 12 year old boy with upper teeth more forwards than we see on average when compared to the lower teeth (a Class II bite) and moderate crowding of the teeth was treated using invisalign along with elastics (rubber bands) to correct the Class II bite.

Progress

Ten months in to treatment with invisalign most of the space from removal of the upper second premolar teeth has been closed.  Another set of aligners is being designed to finish treatment.  This is the fine tuning phase of treatment.

Final Records

Treatment finished after 17 months of aligner treatment.  The patient has chosen to wear upper and lower clear plastic removable retainers.
