Future Advances In Invisalign
In the future, it is probable that impressions of the teeth will no longer be necessary for starting Invisalign treatment, but that instead the teeth will be scanned by an intra-oral device, and the data will be collected electronically instead of physically.
As technology improves, the plastic of the aligners will probably vary in stiffness depending on which tooth that section of the plastic is attaching to.The locations and shapes of bumps on the teeth (attachments) will continue to evolve, and the ability to correct certain types of overbites and underbites will improve as more use of elastics and bone screws are integrated in with Invisalign.
