Abstract(s)
Desenvolvimentos recentes no campo da ortodontia levaram a grandes mudanças no interesse dos pacientes pela terapia ortodôntica. Cada vez mais adultos e adolescentes estão solicitando uma opção mais estética, mais confortável e menos dolorosa; sendo que, o ortodontista deve estar bem atualizado e informado para responder a todas as perguntas sobre as expectativas do seu paciente.
O aumento da solicitação de aparelhos estéticos estimulou os fabricantes de materiais ortodônticos a desenvolverem alternativas cada vez mais presentes no quotidiano clínico do ortodontista. Assim, foram desenvolvidos alinhadores transparentes removíveis que surgiram com o intuito de substituir os aparelhos fixos convencionais estéticos em inúmeros casos.
Sendo assim, o objetivo desta revisão prende-se com a necessidade de reunir as mais recentes informações numa ampla comparação da qualidade de vida em diversos aspectos tais como: estética, saúde física, mental e funcional, autoestima, conforto, discrição e a adequada higiene oral entre pacientes com tratamentos ortodônticos realizados com dispositivos removíveis (alinhadores estéticos), em especial o sistema
Invisalign ®, e entre os realizados com aparelhos ortodônticos fixos.
Pode-se concluir que os alinhadores ortodônticos removíveis são uma ferramenta importantíssima para o ortodontista, entretanto não substituem por completo o clássico aparelho ortodôntico com braquetes fixos, cabendo ao ortodontista e ao paciente escolherem a melhor opção de tratamento de acordo com a real indicação e necessidade do momento.
