Aligner therapy offers a valuable alternative to fixed appliance treatment in young and adult patients, making it possible to reduce potential side effects and providing an aesthetic therapeutic option. In some patients, abrasions, changes of tooth shape or loss of tooth substance require an additional tooth restoration to obtain an optimal outcome that satisfies the patient. Instead of reducing healthy tooth substance for the preparation of a crown or veneer, the development of composite in the past few years has led to improved results in terms of both longevity and aesthetics. The present article outlines different patient examples of interdisciplinary treatment with aligner orthodontics followed by minimally invasive restorations with composites on anterior teeth.
