Abstract :
Borderline cases in orthodontics present
unique challenges to orthodontists, as they often require
tailored treatment approaches to achieve optimal
outcomes. Firstly, borderline cases encompass a
spectrum of orthodontic issues, including mild to
moderate malocclusions, skeletal discrepancies, and
asymmetries. Treatment planning for these cases
involves a complete assessment of the patient's skeletal
and dental characteristics, as well as individual
treatment goals and preferences. Orthodontists must
employ a combination of traditional fixed appliances,
such as braces or clear aligners, and adjunctive
techniques such as functional appliances, temporary
anchorage devices (TADs), or orthognathic surgery when
indicated.
