Digital Orthodontics Symposium 2026

Abstract

This advanced clinical session explores how modern biomechanical principles can be elevated and adapted to maximise predictability in Invisalign treatment. Dr Suliman will guide participants through force systems, staging strategies, attachment design, and the integration of auxiliaries to manage both growing patients and complex adult malocclusions. The session emphasises practical, evidence-based approaches that enhance treatment efficiency and clinical outcomes.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this lecture, participants will be able to:

• Apply advanced biomechanical principles to optimise clear aligner treatment planning.
• Understand how force systems differ between aligners and fixed appliances.
• Design predictable staging for challenging movements (extrusion, rotation, torque, intrusion).
• Integrate auxiliaries (TADs, elastics, attachments) to enhance biomechanics.
• Improve outcomes in growing patients and complex adult cases.
• Identify biomechanical pitfalls that reduce predictability—and how to avoid them.
