A short transcript excerpt from a YouTube video where Hallie Bulkin and another speaker discuss progress in a patient's Invisalign lower-arch treatment, noting noticeable arch widening by tray 17 of ~27 and claiming that properly planned/activated Invisalign can promote bone remodeling and expansion (not just tooth movement).
Now that we're, like, a little further along in their Invisalign journey for their lower arch, I'm seeing, like, the shape of the Invisalign and I'm like, wow, it's so much wider already. And, like, we're on trace 17, maybe out of, like, 27 at this point. And it's very, very cool to see, like, the growth and the expansion that they're having just from the Invisalign trace.
Exactly. So we also. There's, like, a common notion that Invisalign is just for moving teeth and you cannot really develop the bone, so it really matters how plan and design your appliance. And you can actually promote this bone growth by remodeling on the bottom arch, depending on how you activate. It's just like using the canvas and.
The paint in.
Different ways, right?
Yeah, no, it's very cool. And like I said, they've had other expansion. We've had some results in the past expansion, but nothing like, to this degree.
