Aligner therapies are playing an increasingly important role in modern dentistry. It is no longer just about aesthetic corrections. Aligners can also significantly facilitate the treatment process prior to dental restorations, increase safety and thus lead to better results.
Aligner treatments are often primarily associated with cosmetic procedures, but in reality they are an indispensable part of holistic dental therapy. Especially in the pre-restorative phase, such as before placing implants or making crowns, bridges or veneers, they make a decisive contribution to the success of the subsequent treatment. The more precisely the teeth are aligned, the smoother and more successful the subsequent restoration will be.
The importance of pre-restorative orientation
Aligner therapy before a restoration offers numerous advantages. The correct tooth position not only makes planning the treatment easier, but also makes it easier to carry out. The improved alignment of the teeth creates a stable basis for the subsequent restoration. Aligners protect the tooth substance and increase the long-term stability of the restorations.
Risks such as the loss of veneers, incorrect loading of implants or the loosening of crowns are thus significantly reduced. In addition, the previous aligner therapy supports the often desired “smile design” in restorative dentistry, which leads to a particularly aesthetic result. Especially with veneers, the precise alignment enables minimal preparation of the teeth, which means more tooth hard substance is preserved. Evenly strong veneers also contribute to optimised colour reproduction.
