Different biomechanical effects of clear aligners in bimaxillary space closure under two strong anchorages: finite element analysis

Abstract Background Clear aligner (CA) treatment has been gaining popularity, but the biomechanical effects of CAs in bimaxillary dentition have not been thoroughly investigated. Direct and indirect strong anchorages are two common anchorage control methods, but the underlying biomechanical mechanis...
