It is important to point out that the goal in this case was to avoid inclination of upper incisors (proclination) and to achieve movement towards buccal (a range of 4.5mm) to help and gain the needed space for the canine eruption. With the goal of avoiding the disadjustment of the aligner during the treatment, simultaneous to the protrusion a buccal root torque was applied to those tooth of 2 degrees per aligner during that specific movement.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][vc_row_inner css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1717061868251{padding-bottom: 50px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1715330754398{padding-top: 1px !important;padding-right: 1px !important;padding-bottom: 1px !important;padding-left: 1px !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;4741&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1746778330482{padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;no-margin&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1715330743388{padding-top: 1px !important;padding-right: 1px !important;padding-bottom: 1px !important;padding-left: 1px !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;4742&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;no-margin&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]To ensure a good engagement between molars, Dr. Iv\u00e1n Malag\u00f3n planned constriction and distal palatal rotation in tooth 1.6 ( helped by a vertical mesial bevelled attachment) and applying 12 degrees buccal root torque compensation to tooth 2.6 (planning the movements from the root with Spark approver).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_section full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221;][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1717416250502{background-color: #f2f2f2 !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1715331339080{padding-top: 1px !important;padding-right: 1px !important;padding-bottom: 1px !important;padding-left: 1px !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;4743&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1715331347406{padding-top: 1px !important;padding-right: 1px !important;padding-bottom: 1px !important;padding-left: 1px !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;4744&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1715331368722{padding-top: 1px !important;padding-right: 1px !important;padding-bottom: 1px !important;padding-left: 1px !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;4745&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1715331364163{padding-top: 1px !important;padding-right: 1px !important;padding-bottom: 1px !important;padding-left: 1px !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;4746&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1727781425841{background-color: #f2f2f2 !important;}&#8221;][vc_column css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1715331339080{padding-top: 1px !important;padding-right: 1px !important;padding-bottom: 1px !important;padding-left: 1px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]An important tip that Dr. Malag\u00f3n shares with this case is the fact of avoiding the placement of pontics \u2013 that in this case would be eruption guide as it is a growing patient \u2013 up until there is enough space. This is a benefit as the TruGEN\u2122 material will be in close contact with the mesial face of 1.4 and distal face of 1.2 and as consequence there will be an optimal control of the tipping of these teeth.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;50px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;

With Dr. Malag\u00f3n\u2019s treatment protocol, not only extractions were avoiding in this case but also interproximal reduction as all the space needed was achieved with movements like distalization, protrusion (upper), proclination (lower) and also expansion. Spark Aligners were the best option because Dr. Iv\u00e1n Malag\u00f3n took advantage of the flexibility of the Spark Approver software to apply his protocols in terms of sequence of movements and selection of attachments, to get a good response of all periodontal tissues and avoiding extractions that could have lead to worsen the patient\u2018s profile.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<span class=\"text-small\">* Dr. Iv\u00e1n Malag\u00f3n is a paid consultant for Ormco.
