Treatment with the Incognito System<br />
Lingual Orthodontics is getting more and more popular in orthodontics all over the world. This<br />
leads to an increased demand in our practices for an invisible treatment. The orthodontist needs<br />
to work with a lingual appliance that can solve every single orthodontic problem as a conventional<br />
labial appliance does. There is no room for an undertreatment. That makes it necessary to work<br />
with a 3D lingual appliance. An appliance that is exact enough , that can control the 3rd order –<br />
Torque and is comfortable for the patient. There are plenty of orthodontic cases that only can<br />
succesfully be treatet if torque can be controlled and established.<br />
In order to make treatment for both the patient and doctor more easy and sufficient combining<br />
treatment methods will lead to favourable results. Combining Incognito appliance and Herbst<br />
appliance leads to treatment opportunities that i never had before while working with a lingual<br />
appliance. Patients can be treated less invasive because extractions and surgery can be avoided<br />
in many cases. An individual set up is produced for every patient including the treatment goals.<br />
Based on the set up Incognito Brackets and individual arch wires are produced. The aim of my<br />
lecture is to discuss these aspects.<br />
I am very glad that there are more and more colleagues attanding lingual courses and society<br />
meetings such as the European ESLO and the German DGLO. Since 2006 a Master of Science<br />
class in lingual orthodontics is established at the Medical University Hannover / Germany to meet<br />
the academic demand.<br />
