Every orthodontic patient is enthusiastic about the possibility of reducing their treatment time. Given this constant demand for shorter treatments, orthodontists from around the world have increasingly sought ways to boost orthodontic treatment efficiency. The search for this efficiency, i.e., new approaches to shorten treatment time without foregoing optimal results, has become a primary goal of orthodontics.

Since the promise of a faster treatment holds considerable commercial appeal, orthodontists are faced with a major challenge.
