Case Study 66 – Smile Arc

Treatment was with braces in the Damon System customized with Insignia.  Her treatment was to address crowding of her teeth and a flat “Smile Arc”.   Smile Arc is defined as how the upper front teeth curve nicely with the lower lip.  Upper front teeth that are aligned to match the curve of the lower lip make for a prettier smile.  Total treatment time was about 10 months with braces and elastics but was without removal of any teeth and was without a palatal expander.  Using Insignia, we were able to determine prior to starting her treatment how the upper front teeth should be positioned to make the best Smile Arc.
