Description

Interarch elastics remain one of the most powerful adjuncts in aligner biomechanics. Dr. Miguel Polónia explores how strategic elastic integration enhances sagittal, vertical, and transverse corrections within aligner therapy. Through clinical protocols and case demonstrations, the session reviews prescription design, attachment coordination, and compliance management. Attendees will gain practical methods to expand treatment capabilities while maintaining efficiency and predictability. Learning objectives: 1. Understand biomechanical principles behind elastic use in aligner therapy. 2. Identify clinical scenarios requiring interarch elastic integration. 3. Prescribe elastic configurations for sagittal, vertical, and transverse corrections. 4. Coordinate attachment design and staging with elastic mechanics. 5. Implement compliance strategies to maximize treatment effectiveness.
