This orthodontics webinar, specifically targeting South Africa, drew close to 800 registrations and featured expert insights from Dr. Suliman Shahin, with Dr. Wilmary Petros (South Africa) serving as the moderator. The focus of the event was on mastering aligner biomechanics and digital treatment planning—two essential components for delivering predictable and high-quality outcomes in modern orthodontics.

It was a very good session, with lots of engagement from the doctors, who actively participated and asked many specific orthodontic questions, reflecting a strong interest in the topic and a desire to apply the insights in practice.

The session explored the advanced integration of Invisalign® biomechanics and digital tools, particularly the capabilities of ClinCheck® Pro 6.0, offering participants a deep dive into how these two elements work hand in hand to deliver precision-driven results.

Dr. Shahin shared key clinical concepts such as attachment design, force systems, and staging strategies, supported by real case examples that brought theory to life. Attendees gained valuable insights on how to fully leverage Invisalign’s features to enhance treatment control, efficiency, and overall patient satisfaction.

With a strong turnout and enthusiastic feedback, the session proved to be a valuable opportunity for clinicians aiming to elevate their aligner treatment planning and clinical success.
