Interceptive Treatment with Invisalign^® First in Moderate and Severe Cases: A Case Series.

ABSTRACT: The increasing demand for more aesthetic/comfortable orthodontic alternatives fostered the utilization of clear aligners in recent years. However, the efficacy of clear aligners for treating complex malocclusions is often treated with scepticism. This case series aims to evaluate the predictability of the Invisalign^® First system in moderate and severe cases requiring interceptive orthodontic treatments in mixed dentition. A total of 23 patients with 102 interceptive orthodontic malocclusion traits were selected for orthodontic treatment with Invisalign^® First and were examined over 18 months (Phase 1). Clinical assessments included ClinCheck^® predictions, cephalometric measurements, and measuring tools commonly used to quantify tooth movement. Measurements
