The Reliability of ClinCheck<sup>®</sup> Accuracy before and after Invisalign<sup>®</sup> Treatment—A Multicenter Retrospective Study
Abstract
The objective was to evaluate the accuracy of ClinCheck® reliability in the sagittal, vertical, transverse, and arch length dimensions before and after Invisalign® (Align Technology, Santa Clara, CA, USA) treatment. This retrospective study was conducted on 206 patients who underwent dual-arch clear aligner therapy exclusively with Invisalign®. Digital models were obtained from iTero® scanners from three different private practices where the treatment plans were performed and executed by multiple orthodontists with varying degrees of experience. The ClinCheck® models of the initial, achieved, and predicted outcome were obtained from Align Technology® and the values were compared using Pearson correlation (p p p = 0.03, p ® was 76.85% overall; however, Invisalign® providers may need to exaggerate the digital tooth movements to achieve the desired outcome.
