Topic
Considerable scientific progress has also been observed in dental treatments in the last two decades. One of the outstanding achievements of this development, in parallel with the spread of digital technology, was the appearance of removable, invisible appliances, so-called aligners, which are much more favorable both in terms of aesthetics and comfort compared to traditional fixed braces. The aim of the course is to provide the audience with information about aligner treatments.
