An ACDE Joint Provider Live Webinar Series …
Presented by
DR. SARAH ABU ARQUB

This lecture will summarize the latest evidence related to the efficacy of clear aligners in achieving various types of tooth movements, their utilization, and predictability in treating different malocclusions including orthognathic surgical cases. In addition to giving an overview of the most common protocols and practices, clinicians implement when using clear aligners in treating their patients. And compare the efficacy of achieving the desired tooth movement between various commercially available aligner systems.

At the conclusion of this course, participants should be able to:

  • Correlate the clinicians’ preferences, practices and protocols related to clear aligner therapy to the current evidence on the efficacy and applications of clear aligners.
  • Highlight the latest evidence in relation to clear aligner therapy

After five more years in private practice at the Sunna Orthodontic Center in Jordan, Abu Arqub returned to the United States and to UConn, to earn her second master’s and orthodontics certificate that brought her to Gainesville.

Abu Arqub is involved in several research projects, has published in over 10 publications, with several pending publications and a number of others in progress, and is cited in more than 100 journals in her career so far. She is a peer reviewer for six publications, including the American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, the European Journal of Orthodontics, and the Journal of Biology and Craniofacial Research.
