Contributions of Digital Simulation to Orthodontic Therapeutic Decision-Making: A Case Report.

Adult orthodontics aims to achieve optimal functional and aesthetic corrections. However, for several reasons, some patients will wish to benefit from a limited treatment where only certain aspects of a malocclusion will be corrected. In these clinical situations, the therapeutic objectives must be adjusted to the individual needs of the patient insofar as they can bring them real benefits. The use of digital technology makes it possible to study the therapeutic possibilities better and visualize the occlusal results before choosing the best therapeutic approach, especially in cases requiring customization. The aim of this clinical case report is to illustrate the orthodontic compromise made after the analysis of the digital setup in an adult patient who presented with a class III malocclusion but refused orthodontic-surgical therapy and requested an alternative treatment.
