How do you know when a case is done and when you need a Refinement? What will you do if one tooth didn’t quite rotate? Or if there are a couple open contacts? What if they are hitting hard in one spot? There are many times that simple fixes can save you from ordering additional aligners and dragging on treatment.

Course Objectives

In this lecture, Dr. Farahani will show you her “Snap, Crackle, Pop!” technique for evaluating alignment when the patient reaches their last tray. You’ll learn how to look for the details that matter in finishing a case and what to do to make minor corrections without a Refinement! Dr. Farahani will also give you tips for anticipating these problems so that you can have the fixes built into the ClinCheck before the problem happens.
