Abstract/OtherAbstract:
For years, restorative practices and traditional orthodontics stood largely separate from one another save for the most extreme instances. Orthodontics has evolved over the years, and a new breed of orthodontic technology appeared in the late 1990s. A clear alternative to traditional orthodontics emerged, and Invisalign (Align Technology, Inc., Santa Clara, CA) was born. Historically, orthodontics and restorative work, within a practice, rarely coincided on the same patient, but the advances within both disciplines have afforded a new and innovative way of considering conservative dentistry. No longer does there have to be aggressive preparation to attain a desired result. With patient understanding, a negligible amount of patience, and the desire to achieve the very best dentistry has to offer, the potential is limitless.
