| Abstrakt: | Orthodontics is undergoing a digital revolution, transforming traditional techniques with modern technology. This evolution is driven by the need for precise diagnosis and treatment planning. Digital platforms, including digital radiography and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), are replacing conventional methods, enhancing documentation, analysis, and appliance production. Three-dimensional imaging enables customized treatment plans and appliance design using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacture (CAD/CAM). Integration of digital models and software facilitates treatment simulation and patient communication. Digital videography enhances diagnostic capabilities. Embracing digital processes is essential for improved patient care and practice efficiency in orthodontics. This review article on digital orthodontics aims to provide a comprehensive overview and critical analysis of the current advancements, technologies, applications, benefits, and challenges in the field of orthodontics utilizing digital tools and technologies.
