Abstract
The concept of creating the so-called esthetic smile is still subject to debate. While there is no optimal way to achieve the smile esthetics, this fact drove the idea of improving the available algorithms employed for the treatment of dentofacial anomalies. Smile reconstruction in orthodontic treatment is a complex process, which is subject to certain rules and laws, and takes an interdisciplinary approach from dental specialists. When dealing with dental anomalies, one of the most important practical components is the correct method of the braсket positioning. Based on the analysis of the options offered currently by digital technologies, and the negative outcomes of orthodontic treatment, the following aim was set for the current study – to improve the algorithms employed to select individual methods of bracket personalized placement as per each clinical situation in particular. The methods used through the study included: clinical, digital, statistical, and analytical one. Following the criteria of the esthetic smile, the location, the shape and the structure of the teeth of a particular patient, an individual method for bracket positioning was developed, the final outcomes of that being a smile with individual parameters. This method allows achieving a maximum esthetic result. The proposed technique is the method of choice in each specific clinical situation and can be used depending on the indications.
