It is based on the biologic principle of the use of very light forces, perfectly measured for each tooth and orthopedic maxillary . They are principles, developed and designed are present in today’s techniques MBT, Roth , light force ( 3D custom design braces) and all current aligners system .Brief “The tool doesn’t matter, what matters is how you use it .” This therapy has a hierarchical sequence for treat both early mixed dentition and permanent . Another advantage of the bioprogressive technique, emphasized by the author is that its purpose is not an absolute standardization of treatment; there are certain principles, but the diagnosis, planning and manner of the therapy are individualized to fit the specific needs of each patient .There is no doubt that the introduction of Ricketts cephalometric analysis and VTO into orthodontic diagnostics is very significant which is an indispensable part of contemporary orthodontics.
