ABSTRACT
Title: The management of transverse plane malocclusion with Lingual Appliance and Clear aligner orthodontic treatment
The treatment of the transverse plane is one of the strong points of treatments with aligners; this is due principally to
the large contact between the aligner and the teeth
However, in certain cases it’s necessary to associate this treatment with a skeletal expansion in order to act at the bone level
3D imagery, CBCT and intra-oral scan are tools which allow us to perform a precise diagnosis and determine the limit of alveolar expansion.
The traditional method for treating skeletal maxillary constriction is surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion followed by orthodontic treatment to correct the transversal deficit.
This procedure present the following problems:
1. unsightly post expansion inter-incisor midline diastema
2. Orthodontic treatment delayed up to 6 months after expansion (due to the presence of expander)
3. Esthetic and hygienic issues related to traditional orthodontic appliances
4. inability to benefit of acceleratory phenomenon of orthodontic tooth movement
In order to solve these problems we propose a new protocol, During this presentation Several cases will be discussed to illustrate the solutions and the evolution of the treatment of skeletal maxillary constriction from traditional method to our current protocol.
