Accuracy of maxillary molar distalization with clear aligners in three-dimension: a retrospective study based on CBCT superimposition
The achieved molar distalization displacement and anterior teeth retraction is not as good as expected using CAs. The anterior and posterior anchorage loss cannot be completely avoided despite extra anchorage management devices are adopted. The potential reason for the correction of class II malocclusion needs further exploration.
