A Comparison of Direct 3D Printed Clear Aligner System and Indirect Clear Aligner Systems With Fixed Orthodontic Treatment in Terms of Endocrine Disrupting Monomer Release, Treatment Effectiveness and Efficiency

The aim of this study is to evaluate the release of endocrine disrupting monomers from clear aligners as a result of exposure to intraoral factors by measuring their concentration in saliva and to evaluate their reliability of use in terms of general health by comparing them with the fixed orthodontic treatment group. It is also aimed to compare the groups in terms of treatment effectiveness and efficiency.
