ABSTRACT:
A trim tooth positioner is constructed to cover only the incisal edges and cusps of the teeth themselves. The result is that the majority of the bulk covering the teeth and gums is eliminated. This significantly increases patient comfort and greatly overcomes the major disadvantage of positioners, that is, poor patient cooperation. The performance is equal or superior to that of other positioner designs in that enhanced cooperation far outweighs any advantage offered by bulk.
