Dr. Galler was an early adopter of Invisalign for his adult patients in NYC- and invented the Galler Spacing Technique (GST) in 2009. This was then updated to the Galler Ostreicher Spacing Technique (GOST) and is now used by thousands of practitioners across the globe. Being able to effectively and easily create space in between teeth during Adult Clear Aligner Treatment is a key aspect of proper, timely, and effective treatment.
