摘要：The purpose of the present study was to assess the knowledge amongst practising orthodontists about various aligner systems being used in treatment. Methodology: Two groups of patients (20 participants in total) were selected and were respectively treated with Nuvola® aligner and Fantasmino® system. The two groups were compared by patient’s satisfaction, improvement of the irregularity index. Results: The goal of treatment has been achieved with the two systems. The average index value was 5.08 mm for group A and 4.97 mm for group B. Following alignment, both systems have shown a reduction of the average index value of 0.69 mm for group A and 0.64 mm for group B. Conclusion: The two types of aligners have shown differences during the treatment. Fantasmino® system has elastic properties of high performance, but its size does not encourage compliance throughout the day. Nuvola® system determines good tooth movement and its size facilitates the patient’s collaboration. In both aligner systems, difficulties were found in the correction of torque information and rotations.
