Placing Attachments for Clear Orthodontic Aligners
THE NEXT DDS
This video explains the process of preparing the teeth and creating attachments for clear orthodontic aligners. It will explain how to prepare and apply the phosphoric acid gel, to pre-etch when bonding to uncut enamel and how to light-cure and load composite material for the best fit.
