About this course :
Can we treat kids in mixed dentition with clear aligners? That question is often asked. Will they wear the aligners? The answers: Yes and yes!
Young patients have been wearing appliances through the years and have excellent compliance. Appliances that are a lot more challenging to wear than aligners (twin blocks, Haas, split plates, quad helix, headgear, etc...).
Teeth are not selective, and whether it is primary or permanent teeth, as long as you apply a constant force and they are not blocked or ankylosed, they will move!
With kids, we want to prevent problems, keep space, maintain space and/or regain space that we have lost for some reason. This course is more than just how to treat mixed dentition cases with clear aligners.
Preventive and interceptive orthodontic treatment is sometimes unclear because it implies that if we do it correctly if we intercept a problem, there will be no need for further orthodontic treatment. Which is, most of the time, not true! Intercepting a problem and preventing some problems will be very helpful in reducing the severity of problems but rarely is so successful that later treatment becomes unnecessary. Our responsibility as primary care providers is to see the problems, understand the consequences they could bring and inform the parents/patients about them.

- Review the growth and development principles;
