ISBN: 978-93-5938-871-7

The evolution of orthodontics has been marked by a continuous pursuit of efficiency, precision, and patient centered care. Among the most transformative advancements in recent decades is the development of clear aligner therapy, which has redefined both the clinical and aesthetic dimensions of treatment. At the core of this innovation lies a complex interplay of biomechanical principles that govern tooth movement in a controlled and predictable manner.

It aims to present a concise yet comprehensive overview of the biomechanics underlying clear aligner therapy. Emphasis is placed on fundamental concepts, force systems, material properties, and the biological responses that influence treatment outcomes. By bridging theoretical principles with clinical application, the chapter seeks to enhance understanding and support evidence based practice.

Designed for students, researchers, and clinicians alike, this section aspires to contribute to a deeper appreciation of the science behind clear aligners and to encourage thoughtful integration of biomechanics into everyday orthodontic decision making.

Dr. Nupur Uskar

Dr. Vidhi Gopalani is a Postgraduate Student in Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry, a compassionate

researcher, and a passionate writer whose clinical work is driven by a deep commitment to providing

comprehensive dental care for children, including those with special healthcare needs. She has

completed her Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) from Hitkarini Dental College and Hospital,

Jabalpur (M.P.), and is currently pursuing her Master of Dental Surgery (MDS) in Pediatric and

Preventive Dentistry at the same institution.

During her postgraduate training, Dr. Vidhi has developed a keen interest in cleft lip and palate

management, focusing on pre-surgical nasoalveolar molding (NAM) and comprehensive care for

affected infants.

Her enthusiasm for Pre-Surgical Nasoalveolar Molding (PNAM) stems from a desire to reduce

surgical burden, improve long-term outcomes, and provide holistic support to families navigating

complex care pathways from the very beginning of a child's life.

By merging clinical precision with a natural gift for clear, empathetic writing, Dr. Vidhi aims to

bridge the gap between advanced clinical techniques and practical execution. This book reflects her

unwavering dedication to empowering clinicians, postgraduate students, and parents with an

accessible, evidence based roadmap to early cleft intervention.
