Abstract

The application of magnetic forces to clear aligner therapy would create a magnetic force interaction that can theoretically make the movement of teeth in any direction possible and easier. With this objective in mind the following section of this literature review deals with the use of clear thermoplastics in orthodontics. The current literature regarding the efficacy of the appliance is examined to highlight the need for enhancement of this system.
