THE INVISALIGN® SYSTEM IS REDEFINING CLASS II TREATMENT IN GROWING PATIENTS

Efficient treatment.
Elevated patient comfort1
and compliance2.
Predictable tooth movement.

The Invisalign System with mandibular advancement featuring occlusal blocks minimizes the need for multiple appliances to treat Class II malocclusions while simultaneously aligning the teeth. It is made from our proprietary SmartTrack™ material, which is predictable and more comfortable than traditional appliances1. Which is important, because patient comfort plays an important role in adherence to prescribed wear times and achieving 
optimal outcomes2.

How occlusal blocks work

  1. Invisalign clear aligners with integrated blocks are positioned on the occlusal surface.

  2. When the patient occludes in the forward position, the occlusal blocks engage in advancing and holding the mandible. 

  3. The system moves the jaw forward while simultaneously moving teeth and treats Class II malocclusion, including cases with severe deep bite.
