Predictability of In‐Office Clear Aligner at Final Canine Retraction: A Comparison of Interproximal Contact Tightness and Canine Distalization Between Virtual and Actual Outcomes in Premolar Extraction Cases
The actual interproximal contacts were not completely closed, in contrast to the complete contact predicted by the 3D virtual setup. To prevent this remaining gap, it is recommended to perform fake interproximal stripping or tooth collision during the virtual planning stage.
