"Keeping your cases
on track from the
beginning will help
your business
stay viable
when traditional
economic models
are failing."

It may sound like a lot, but he was only
in the chair for 30 minutes to examine him
and take records. It took 20 minutes to place
buttons for elastics and deliver the aligners.
He returned to the office in approximately four months and I was very pleased
with the progress (Fig. 23). I found a very
compliant patient and a closed open bite.
The anterior teeth were in occlusion, but
the right buccal segment could be further
closed and the overbite was still a bit on the
shallow side. To be as accurate as possible, I
rescanned his teeth to build the final aligner
stages. We built the first three stages again,
delivered them the same day and confirmed
everything fit well. We mailed him the
remaining stages.
For less than four months of effort, not
only were we successful in helping him out,
we showed that jaw surgery was not the only

way to resolve his issue (Fig. 24). The patient
will also use his VPro+ in retention to make
sure his retainer fits properly.

Conclusion
What's so important to take out of these
cases is that patients want to be done in a
hurry with fewer office visits. In the past,
I couldn't offer this for more advanced
cases; now, with MOPs and vibration to
help patients stay on track, I'm confident
that I can. Teledentistry, in-office aligners
and vibration are here to stay.
I started this article when I went skiing
with my buddies and, honestly, I forgot
about turning it in. Four weeks later, the
COVID-19 pandemic turned our world
upside-down and put our economy and
way of life on hold. This is an opportunity
to reinvent yourself.

Working at the University of Illinois
Craniofacial Center, I have a firsthand view
of the damage the virus is doing and its
catastrophic pattern of disbursement and
spread. How bizarre to think that teledentistry and fewer office visits would become
a front-and-center concept because of the
pandemic. And it's one more reason to look
at MOPs and soft-pulse vibration: Keeping
your cases on track from the beginning
will help your business stay viable when
traditional economic models are failing.
Using technology kept my aligners fitting
and tracking better and allowed patients to
check in with me so that I could intervene
when I deemed it necessary.
Whether you feel the need for speed, or
as in more recent days you can't see your
patients, I find these technologies help me
to help my patients to get it straight! ■
