INTRODUCTION
I started using clear aligners in 2004. At that
time, you almost had to be a little crazy (I
was!) to decide to treat patients and move
teeth with "plastic." One thing is for sure:
you had to be confident and learn fast how
to think like plastic!

BONUS TIP
Get educated! In this era of popularity where
AI seems to slowly take control of
everything, resist and don't rely on the
software to "do the job" and decide for you.
It is there to help, for sure. It is a great tool
that allows us to better treatment plan our
cases. But tell yourself that the software and
the technicians working on the "setup" are
not dentists. They are not diagnosing and
treatment planning your cases.
