C5 Hidden Orthodontics Case of the Month
March 2026
Dr. Lucas Shapiro
Wall Street Orthodontics
New York, NY
This month’s case highlights the power of efficient tooth movement with C5 Hidden Orthodontics. The patient began treatment with Dr. Shapiro in mid-August 2025, presenting with mandibular crowding.
By October 2025—less than two months later— C5 Hidden Orthodontics achieved the alignment shown in the occlusal view of the progress photo. This rapid movement is a testament to precise treatment planning and the systemic efficacy presented with Hidden Orthodontics.

Dr. Benjamin Cassalia
Cassalia Orthodontics
Chalfont & Ottsville PA
This patient had orthodontic treatment as a teen but never received permanent retainers, and eventually stopped wearing her removable trays, leading to noticeable shifting in her upper and lower front teeth. In October 2025, she began treatment with Dr. Cassalia, the inventor of C5 Hidden Orthodontics, and in just three months her relapse was corrected and her arch stabilized. Her lower ProWire was replaced with a fixed retainer, while her upper Alta-Flex wires remained in place for long-term retention.

Harleysville & Telford, PA
Dr. Reckner produced a new smile for his patient who was happy with her upper anterior alignment but wanted some work on the lower. Unwilling to wear braces or aligners, this patient would not have started treatment without C5 Hidden Orthodontics! In just a short period of time, her smile was aligned without compliance issues or attachments.

Dr. Saoly Benson
The Art of Braces

A single-arch treatment showing how C5 Hidden Orthodontics quickly corrected minor shifting, no braces, no aligners. The patient came in with a broken permanent retainer and didn’t get it fixed right away, which caused the front teeth to rotate.
