This document discusses removable clear aligners for orthodontic treatment. It provides a brief history of clear aligners, including their introduction in the 1990s as an aesthetic alternative to braces. It describes the Invisalign system and process, which uses clear plastic aligners made through CAD/CAM technology to gradually move teeth over time. Key steps involve taking impressions, creating a 3D model, getting clincheck approval of the planned treatment, and monitoring progress with aligner changes every 2 weeks. Compliance in wearing the aligners for 20-22 hours daily is important for success. The Essix system is also summarized as allowing tooth movement with bumps or mounds added to aligners.
Clear Aligners in Orthodontics
nvisalign is an orthodontic
technique that uses a series of
computer-generated custom
plastic aligners to guide the teeth
gradually into proper alignment.
• Although the use of clear aligner
treatment is not new, it is a
growing part of the orthodontic
market, and, as a result, many
new products have become
available.
hai this is a nice seminar and inculcated all the recent materials and biomaterials and biomechanics of the invisalign techniques , materials to be used and clinical aspects just have a look to it
The very need for orthodontic treatment by a majority of adult patients is derived with a desire for enhancement of dental alignment and facial aesthetics. Although buccal fixed metallic appliances are efficient treatment systems, the reluctance of their use is mainly due to metal look, poor aesthetics and fear of pain. Clear plastic aligners’ offer an excellent alternative to unaesthetic orthodontic treatment with labial fixed appliances
The clear aligner appliance(s) is nearly transparent, colourless and almost invisible. As these devices are removable, they allow the patient an additional option to be without braces for social and professional engagements. The oral hygiene is not a problem with this appliance and most patients adapt to it very quickly. The success of these types appliances is intimately related to the compliance in wearing the appliance for a minimum number of hours and following the required schedule of changing the aligners as per sequence assigned to the case. Patients are asked to wear the aligners for a minimum of 22 h/day. Thus, patient compliance is paramount in clear aligner therapy.
Some of the patients seeking clear aligner treatment are those who have previously received orthodontic treatment using fixed appliances and have had a relapse or are unsatisfied with treatment outcome.

Once novel, Invisalign is now a digital orthodontic appliance used to treat millions of patients. This customized appliance is created by the aid of sophisticated 3D imaging and animation tools that enable virtual simulation of tooth movements. Tooth movements resemble a filmstrip, and each frame is called a stage. Each stage corresponds to a set of clear plastic aligner trays. As the trays are worn by the patient, every tray pushes the teeth 0.25-0.33mm at a time (Tuncay 2006). Each tray or aligner is composed of clear, removable polyurethane, which provides esthetic and more comfortable appliance wear experience than the traditional fixed appliances. This unique and esthetic alternative to tooth movement continues to recruit more patients to orthodontic therapy.

• In orthodontics, among the three planes of space - sagittal, vertical, and
transverse, the transverse is the least studied.
• The transverse facial growth normally completes before the sagittal and

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
2. INTRODUCTION
• With the increase in number of adult patients seeking orthodontic
treatment , now a days demand for more aesthetic options are
increasing …..
Ceramic brackets
Lingual orthodontic treatment
Clear aligners
3. • Clear aligners are minimally visible method for
moving teeth without band, wire, or bracket.
• Treatment consists of a series of clear aligners
that are worn to gradually move teeth.
• Clear aligners were introduced as an aesthetic
alternative to fixed labial appliances.
• Since their introduction, the aligner systems have
evolved in an attempt to achieve improved tooth
alignment and occlusion.
4. HISTORY
• In 1945 Kesling – Tooth positioner for refining the final
stage of orthodontic treatment after debanding .
• In 1971 Ponitz intoduced a similar appliance called the
invisible retainer , which is made of a thin thermoplastic
acrylic sheet . Invisible retainer can be used to treat minor
relapse and also for detailing of the occlusion .
5. In 1993 the Essix retainer was introduced which was similar to
the invisible retainer and was made of a clear thin material that
snap fits over the dentition . This can be modified by
orthodontist to bring about minor tooth movement .
In 1997 the Invisalign appliance was introduced by Align
Technology . This system made use of computer aided design
and computer aided manufacturing ( CAD- CAM ) technology to
fabricate series of positioners that can move teeth in small
increaments of about 0.25 to 0.30 mm
8. INVISALIGN SYSTEM
• Makes use of series of aligners made from thin , transparent ,
thermoplastic material formed with CAD-CAM technique.
• These cover the clinical crown and the marginal gingiva.
• Each aligner is designed to move the teeth by 0.25 to 0.3 mm
over a period of 2 wks .
• They have to be worn in specific sequence .
9. KEY TO SUCCESS
Pateint motivation and compliance
Must wear it 20 to 22 hrs a day
They may remove while eating , drinking
hot drinks , brushing and flossing
10. INDICATION
• Class I spacing with minor/moderate crowding and existing good
buccal occlusion
• Half-cusp Class II with minor crowding
• Class III with minimal overbite/overjet nonextraction cases
• Deep bite
• Anterior open bite
• Lower incisor extraction
11. CONTRAINDICATION
• Crowding and spacing over 5 mm
• Skeletal antero-posterior discrepancies of more than 2mm
• Centric – relation and centric –occlusion discrepancies
• Severely rotated teeth (more than 20 degrees )
• Open bite
• Extraction cases
• Severe deep bite
• Extrusion of teeth
• Severely tipped teeth
• Teeth with sort clinical crown
• Arches with multiple missing teeth
12. STEPS IN TREATMENT WITH
INVISALIGN
Preappliance requirements
Pateint record , diagnosis and treatment plan
Record submission
3-D computer modeling
Clincheck approval
Aligners manufacturing and shipped
Monitoring treatment
14. PATIENT RECORD ,
DIAGNOSIS AND
TREATMENT PLAN
• Pateint history
• Clinical examination :-
1. extra oral
2. intra oral
• Diagnosis
• Problem list
• Treatment plan
15. RECORD SUBMISSION
• Invisalign impression trays are available in various sizes to
accommodate all patients and can be ordered online for free
from Invisalign.
• Specifically designed for Invisalign treatment planning,
• the Invisalign trays fit uniquely in the digital scanners that
“read” the impressions.
• Invisalign scanners read only polyvinyl siloxane (PVS)
material, so it is imperative that other materials (e.g., alginate
alternatives, polyether materials) not be used.
16.
17. • Ideal impression material systems include putty and light
wash materials, a combination that captures the necessary
details for creating Invisalign aligners.
• Such details include all margins and anatomical landmarks.
• Additionally, these materials set easier
and avoid running and slumping.
18. BITE REGISTRATION
• The clinician provides a full arch Polyvinyl Siloxane bite
registration in a centric occlusion i.e. maximum inter-
cuspation.
An accurate impression of occlusion taken will help in
achieving good results
19. • Extra oral photographs
• Intra oral photographs
• Radiographs
• And the case file filled completely
• Desired treatment plan has to filled
26. ESSIX TOOTH MOVING SYSTEM
• The Essix system of tooth-moving mechanics is based on the
philosophy that the orthodontist should have enough control
over a case to make corrections on the chair throughout
treatment. Tooth movement is possible in all planes of space.
Since this can be done without using multiple customized
appliances, the cost of the fabrication is minimal.
• Essix tooth movement is usually prescribed for the adult
patient with mild-to moderate alignment problems who does
not want to wear fixed appliances.
27. • Tooth movement requires force and space. There are two
types of space that must be evident for the tooth movement
with Essix appliance:-
• • Space within the appliance.
• • Space within the dentition.
28. • SPACE WITHIN THE APPLIANCE:
• Creates a “bubble” inside the appliance using Bubble forming
Thermopliers.
• Creates a “bubble” inside the appliance using Triad or stone.
• Creates a “window” for the targeted tooth to move into.
SPACE WITHIN THE DENTITION
• extraction or expansion
• interproximal reduction
29. • FORCE GENERATION IN ESSIX SYSTEM
• There are two primary systems of creating a tooth moving
force with an Essix appliance:-
• • Hillard thermoforming pliers
• • Mounding
30. HILLARD THERMOFORMING
PLIERS:
• The Hilliard Thermopliers for tooth movement provide force
to move teeth by creating a projection directly into an Essix
appliance
• The bumps created by the pliers are always made towards
the tooth surface for force generation.
• The thermopliers are heated and then placed on the Essix
appliance at the desired tooth position.
• The “bump” can be increased for further movement at
subsequent appointments in 1-mm increment using the hex
screw provided with the pliers.
31. MOUNDING
• A unique alternative method of producing force is by
bonding a small mound of composite to the enamel surface
of the target tooth rather than altering the Essix appliance.
• The advantage of mounding is an esthetically smooth plastic
surface that is not distorted by placing bumps in it with
heated pliers.
• Every time the depth of a projection is increased, the plastic
becomes thinner; conversely, a mound becomes stronger
with the placement of additional layers of composite
32. COMPLICATION WITH
REMOVABLE APPLIANCE
• PATEINT MOTIVATION IS CRITICAL IN ACHIEVING THE
DESIRED RESULT WHEN USING APPLIANCE .
• PATEINT MUST WEAR IT ATLEAST 20 TO 22 HRS A DAY
• THE TRANSPERANCY OF APPLIANCE MAY INCREASE
THE LIKELIHOOD OF IT GETTING MISPLACED .
