KiD

This case, led by Dr. Mercedes Revenaz, presents the interceptive treatment of an 8-year-old patient in mixed dentition with dentoalveolar crowding in both arches, a transverse discrepancy, anterior crossbite, and midline deviation. Using the Angel Aligner KID system, the treatment focused on early correction of occlusal discrepancies through arch expansion, coordination of both arches, and precise control of tooth and root movement. The initial phase included 20 aligners, followed by a refinement phase with 10 aligners to optimize alignment and occlusion. This proactive and minimally invasive approach supported proper dentofacial development while providing a comfortable, esthetic solution that encouraged patient compliance and a positive treatment experience.
