Aligner Techniques in Orthodontics. Susana Palma Moya

children Marta and Paco for the time I have stolen from them and the continuous inspiration and strength they provide to enable me to get the best from myself: thank you.

      To my parents, Mercedes and Paco, whose love and effort encouraged me to become an orthodontist and who have been pillars of strength throughout my life.

      To Align Technology for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to share my orthodontic experience with other practitioners from 2015 onwards.

      I also want to thank all my orthodontics team, because without them we could not get the results we see today, which we are able to demonstrate in the book.

      I want to thank my good friend and partner, Dr Javier Lozano, not only because it has been a pleasure sharing our time working on making the book (and ultimately helping many students master the aligner technique in Aligners Academy), but also because his friendship has led to a tipping point in my life.

      And finally, my thanks go to the entire Wiley team for their help in producing this book.

       Dr. Susana Palma Moya

      To Susana and Paco,

      You both take me to the ‘next level’ every day, inspire my work and my life.

      I do not know where I will be in 10 or 20 years’ time but, of this I am sure, our friendship will remain one of the most important pillars of life to me.

      Thanks for trusting me, for taking care of me, for having me as a friend: I hope life brings you as much happiness as I think you deserve.

      To Dani,

      Your smile is the most important thing to me.

       Dr. Javier Lozano Zafra
