Abstract:Background: During the process of intruding the mandibular anterior teeth with clear aligners, the teeth are susceptible to unintended displacement, leading to complications such as excessive alveolar bone resorption and root exposure, which can significantly compromise the treatment outcome. Therefore, it is imperative to investigate the underlying causes and develop effective coping strategies.
Methods: CBCT data from 30 patients were collected before and after the intrusion treatment of mandibular anterior … Show more
