case_images: Facial and intraoral photographs, panoramic and lateral cephalometric radiographs, and virtual dental impressions were taken prior to orthodontic treatment (Figures 1 and 2). 3D digital models of the upper and lower jaws were obtained with the iTero HD 2.9 intraoral digital scanner (Align Technology, Inc., San Jose, CA) (Figure 3).
