Summary of Findings Dental:
Molars: Class I on right; Missing 26 & 36 on left Canines: Class I Missing: 18, 26, 28, 36, 38 & 48 OJ: 2 mm on right; 3 mm on left Increased OB (50%) Lower dental midline deviates 2 mm to the left upon opening Mild crowding on both upper & lower incisors Normal to tapered arch shapes 6 mm of upper incisors showing at rest Bolton analysis: 75.3%
Skeletal: Symmetrical face; Normocephalic Decreased lower face height Slight-moderate convex profile Pre-Treatment
Diagnosis
Class I molar/canine Maxillary anterior crowding Mandibular anterior crowding 50% overbite Flat to slight curve of spee
Pre-Treatment
Objectives of Treatment
Pre-Treatment
Resolve patient’s chief complaint of crowding
Decrease overbite Maintain class I molar/canine
relationship Maintain nasolabial angle Maintain midlines

Post-Invisalign Treatment
Patient not satisfied with the final position of tooth #32 & tooth #41
Post-Invisalign Treatment Problems
Post-Invisalign Treatment
Dimple-maker! Dimples added to:
Tooth #32 - distal buccal incisal area Tooth #41 - distal buccal incisal area
IPR on both tooth #32 & #41 Both teeth rotated into proper position within 2 weeks Dimples then added to:
Tooth #31 - distal buccal incisal area & mesial lingual incisal area Patient now satisfied with final results

Summary Dental:
Molars: Class I on right; Missing 26 & 36 on left Canines: Class I No atempts made to resolve the skeletal discrepancy OJ: 2 mm on right; 1 mm on left OB (30%) - Decreased from 50% at pre-treatment Lower dental midline deviates 2 mm to the left upon opening Crowding issues on both upper & lower incisors resolved
(addressed CC)
Normal to tapered arch shapes 6 mm of upper incisors showing at rest
Skeletal: Symmetrical face; Normocephalic with dolichocephalic tendenty
remained Slight-moderate convex profile remained
Post-Treatment
Conclusions
• Overall, patient is very satisfied as her chief complaint has been addressed.
• Opted for Invisalign type retainers.• IPR avoided any flaring of the dentition • The upper incisors were not torqued enough
but the esthetic result is still very acceptable.
