Power Without Control is Useless: Simple Protocols for Success with Clear Aligner Cases

Clear aligner techniques have proven to be an exceptional tool for addressing even the most challenging clinical cases. Today, it is possible to correct virtually any type of malocclusion, often avoiding dental extractions and significantly reducing the need for orthognathic surgery.

This success is achieved through the application of light, controlled forces utilizing transparent aligners. However, this remarkable tool only delivers the desired results when the appropriate working protocols are applied and proper planning is undertaken. Dr. Iván Malagón and Dr. Diego Peydro will present a series of highly complex clinical cases that have been successfully resolved without the need for orthognathic surgery or dental extractions, achieving excellent outcomes. They will emphasize the biomechanical considerations and protocols that are essential for attaining such impressive results.

Dr. Iván Malagón &

Dr. Diego Peydro

11.30 – 12.45

How to improve predictability in complex cases with aligners

A high percentage of adult patients who come to our offices have skeletal malocclusions. Most of them prefer to be treated with aesthetic solutions and mainly with aligners.

Although the potential benefits are undeniable, if the teeth fail to track in the aligners, then even simple malocclusions can result in multiple refinement scans.

In this conference we would like to highlight the importance of Biomechanics, 3D technology, Artificial Intelligence and Skeletal Anchorage as essential resources in our clinics to be more predictable and efficient with aligner treatments.

Dr. Manuel Román &

Dr. Juan Carlos Pérez Varela

14.15 – 15.30

Our Ultima destination

After numerous clinical cases, we will explain the path that we have taken so far in the development of the passive self-ligating technique. This journey began back in 2001, following our first contact with Dr Damon.

We have grown and matured using different generations of brackets, archwires and protocols, until we reached the current, and most sophisticated level, in the form of the DAMON ULTIMA System. This now allows us to achieve extraordinary results in less time and effortless

CBCT and Spark : How to treat challenging cases

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) has revolutionized orthodontics, providing three-dimensional imaging that significantly enhances diagnostic accuracy and treatment planning, particularly in complex cases. When combined with clear aligners, CBCT enables orthodontists to better assess the anatomical structures, root positions, and bone density, ensuring more precise aligner designs and improved treatment outcomes. This advanced imaging technology allows for better visualization, it helps in monitoring progress and adjusting aligner therapy as needed, reducing the risk of complications. The integration of CBCT with clear aligners has proven beneficial in treating cases involving severe crowding, complex malocclusions, bone loss, strict control of lower incisors torque or cases that could involve surgery.

Moreover, let’s see how using the CBCT has changed our way of thinking and designing our cases : « New tools, new rules ?

Explaining "biological efficiency" with the Damon Ultima™ System

For most of our patients the priority demand is about the aesthetic result and they want to get it as soon as possible. The Ultima System seems to be faster than ever with its incredible efficiency using the engineering effectiveness and following simple protocols. The Damon System is more than just brackets and wires. It’s a philosophy to use the power of low forces to work together with the muscles and function, to guide our treatments on a biological way. The question is that the amazing aesthetic and functional results we can achieve with accelerated treatment are compatible with our biological thinking we believe, or we need to slow down?

Dr. Peter Márton Steinhof &

Dr. Peter Csiki

15.30 – 16.45
