Influence of maxillary molar distalization with clear aligners on three-dimensional direction: molar distal movement, intrusion, distal tip and crown buccal torque

ConclusionApproximately 2  mm maxillary molar distalization was achieved in this study. Deviational movement of intrusion, distal tip and crown buccal torque beyond the clear aligner virtual design appeared to a certain degree after distalization. Thus, more attention should be given to molar intrusion and distal tip and cr own buccal torque as the designed distalization increases.
