The effect of maxillary molar distalization with clear aligner: a 4D finite-element study with staging simulation

Abstract Introduction Long-term simulation of tooth movement is crucial for clear aligner (CA) treatment. This study aimed to investigate the effect of maxillary molar distalization with CA via an automatic staging simulation. Method A finite-element method (FEM) model of maxillary dentition, period...
