Supporting our members and the specialty-building an AAO for all practice modalities
The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) strives to support members in all practice modalities, promote the orthodontic specialty, and support patient and public health and safety. The business of orthodontics is changing. Nonetheless, the goals, initiatives and values of the AAO serve to advocate for every AAO member, whether they practice in an orthodontist-owned solo practice, a group practice, dental support organizations (DSOs), orthodontic support organizations (OSOs), a military health care facility or a hospital.

Beyond the Numbers: Embracing the Art of Orthodontics with Custom Appliances
Many orthodontists may not be able to recite their bracket prescription on command, but we inherently “know” them. Wire choices, bracket positioning, auxiliaries, and mechanics are all based on the tip, profile, and torque manufactured into orthodontic brackets. This is how existing appliances are customized for patients. (Source: Seminars in Orthodontics)

Analog to digital conversion for all orthodontic patients
Conventional braces are a one-size-fits-all solution requiring doctor time to reposition brackets and bend wire to achieve a reasonable finish. Digital indirect bonding has brought conventional braces into the digital world by allowing the orthodontist to optimize bracket positioning. However, perfect bracket positioning commonly fails to achieve all 3 orders of tooth movements, and therefore, wire bending is still needed. For bracket systems to improve, they must be both digital and custom. The goal of the KLOwen custom bracket system is to realize the practice efficiency of a true straight wire system.

Weighing the options of an in-office versus an outsourced aligner manufacturing approach
Since Align Technology, Inc., introduced their Invisalign product in 1999, the clear aligner market has grown steadily.1 Currently, most orthodontic manufacturers offer an aligner product.2-4 In essence, all 3rd party aligner manufacturers function as an orthodontic lab by providing aligners to ort hodontists based on a prescription for individual patients. There are several benefits to this relationship. The orthodontist can outsource much of their lab work, which frees up staff to handle other tasks or allows the orthodontist to have fewer staff. The orthodontist can also leverage t he marketing dol...

Three-dimensional metal printed orthodontic laboratory appliances
The orthodontic world is facing a new paradigm shift: digitalization. Alginate impressions and plaster models have largely been replaced by intraoral scans and three-dimensional (3D) resin printing. Today, 3D metal printing of metallic orthodontic appliances is at the forefront of the digitalization movement. The purpose of this article is to provide a clinical overview of this new technology.

Invisalign eighth-generation features for deep-bite correction and posterior arch expansion
Every few years Align Technology releases generational enhancements to improve the efficacy and efficiency of their Invisalign system. Each generation may influence the ClinCheck software, the aligner material, the optimized attachments, the tooth activations, or the order in which teeth move.1 Oftentimes, multiple changes occur within each new generation, working in unison to provide better biomechanical control.
