Abstract
Orthodontics is in a major turn of events now. Orthodontics was purely customized at one time where the orthodontist used evaluates each face for its specific individual patterns and plans the treatment accordingly. It used to fabricate the appliance considering these individual needs. Straight wire appliance was a major development in the field of orthodontics. The advent of straight wire system resulted in mass customization of orthodontic brackets. This resulted in a major jump in the industrial production of orthodontic arsenals. But this also resulted in a slow but steady decline of orthodontics as a profession. Then
came the need for invisible orthodontics and lingual appliance became the appliance of choice at this juncture. Lingual appliance is a difficult appliance to use both for the patient and the doctor. This situation resulted in the development of appliances that are un-noticeable and called shall appliances or aligners. This also gained much popularity. But now every laboratory throughout the world makes these aligners. The limitation of this system is the lack of predictable results, root movement and inconvenience of being a removable appliance. At this juncture orthodontist around the globe felt a need for better systems of orthodontics which
are highly effective, invisible and convenient for the patient to wear. It must be easy for the clinician also. And the lingual appliance is being revisited again. With the advent of new technology and because of appliances like BIIOS (Berininov interctive invisible orthodontic systems), orthodontics has become simple, efficient and invisible. With the advent of technology individual customization in orthodontics has become possible and orthodontics evolved its own simple and effective alternative. Here technology came for the aid of the orthodontist. There are many demands of the orthodontic community and at Berininov we addressed each of these demand as an opportunity and taking advantage of the recent advances in technology we made the treatment protocol simple and easy for the doctor. It is also easy for the patient. Our study is the answer we offer to the use of advanced technology in orthodontics.
