Adult patients are the largest growing population seeking orthodontic treatment. Many adult patients seek clear aligners as an esthetic alternative to traditional bracket and wire treatment. Yet many adult patients present with complex restorative treatment needs that can be complimented by orthodontic treatment for improved clinical outcomes with interdisciplinary treatment plans. Adult patients require a different patient experience and seek convenient and efficient treatment. The course will cover the basics of aligner design, materials, and mechanical advantages to understand the importance of product selection in complex adult treatment plans. The CE webinar will also explore the digital workflow and digital ecosystem for office efficiency and optimal patient experience. After the webinar, the attendee should be able to evaluate and select an aligner system for complex interdisciplinary cases, and evaluate how to implement a digital workflow for enhanced treatment planning and patient experience.

Using a scan-first approach, Dr. Garcia will demonstrate how he evaluates tooth position, spacing, and occlusion before developing a treatment plan. Attendees will learn how to determine when to align, when to restore, and when combining treatments may create a more conservative and predictable path to the desired esthetic outcome. The webinar will provide a straightforward framework for recognizing anterior esthetic aligner opportunities, sequencing complementary services, and confidently presenting comprehensive treatment options to patients.
