The Alexander technique, could be called the Ai technique, at the time that Dr. Wick A. proposed it, he thought about the intelligent counting of all the aspects that must control the integral movement of the teeth, with a strong influence of the Tweed philosophy of The technique. Tweed to Vari-Simplex The Discipline maintains many of the Tweed techniques, and was developed from its principles. It has benefited from growth dynamics while remaining true to its three goals: high-quality outcome, ease and convenience for the patient, and minimized chair time. In Alexander Discipline, the patient ends up with a balanced facial proportion consistent with the skeletal pattern, which is the key goal in treating the case. Guide orthodontists in a high quality treatment with components that would facilitate aesthetically and in long-term stability. Today We can reaffirm these results by adding a planning and diagnosis comparing them with the current parameters of the Tweed/Merrifield philosophy
