Abstract

Correction of deep-bite malocclusions with aligners is challenging for orthodontists. This review is intended to help orthodontists improve their clinical success in treating deep-bite malocclusions with aligners. Virtual case setup, attachment design, elastics, and bite ramp utilization are discussed in order to better equip orthodontists with a new “best practices” paradigm.
