Evaluation of adverse physiological events during Invisalign® treatment: part 1

Continuing Education | Volume 12 Number 1

Drs. Bridgette Jones Brooks, Bryan Keith Blankenship, and Jared Stasi explore the literature regarding clear aligners as compared to traditional braces.

Experimental hypotheses

Based on an extensive review of the literature, the experimental hypotheses state that

1. Patients being orthodontically treated with Invisalign® experience less discomfort than patients being treated with traditional fixed appliances.

2. Patients being orthodontically treated with Invisalign experience fewer issues with periodontal health than patients being treated with traditional fixed appliances.

3. Patients being orthodontically treated with Invisalign experience fewer issues with caries/demineralization periodontal health than patients being treated with traditional fixed appliances.

Purpose/abstract

The aim of this study is to review the appropriate literature concerning adverse physiological events experienced by patients being treated with Invisalign appliances and
comparing this literature to that of patients’ adverse physiological events when undergoing fixed orthodontic appliance therapy.
