Abstract

Objectives. Clearstep represents a revolutionary orthodontic treatment solution based on clear, medical grade polyethylene glycol positioners. Materials and methods. The gentle forces delivered by each positioner produce an incremental tooth movement until the desired result is achieved. Each positioner is worn for at least 20 hours a day for 15 days. Results. Either alone or in combination with traditional orthodontic techniques, Clearstep can treat even the most severe dental malocclusions. The Clearstep treatment offers many advantages to both clinicians and patients. Conclusion. The Clearstep technique is an extremely comfortable and aesthetical alternative treatment option.
