Clear aligner therapy is a new approach to move your teeth incrementally. The system uses transparent Orthodontic appliances rather than metal wires and Brackets. The treatment uses a series of clear, removable, custom-made trays that are fabricated using CAD/CAM technology to move your teeth in small increments. At LASER DENTAL, we use world’s no.1 intra-oral scanner “Trios 3”.
Clear aligner therapy is a revolutionary way to gradually shift your teeth. Instead of metal wires and brackets, the technique use transparent Orthodontic appliances. To reposition your teeth in small increments, the procedure employs a series of clear, removable, custom-made trays produced using CAD/CAM technology. The world’s number one intra-oral scanner, the “Trios 3,” is used at LASER DENTAL.
Why choose Clear Aligner therapy?
We capture an image of the tooth/teeth preparation. The impression is captured using an intra-oral scanner that is inserted into the patient’s mouth.
Clear aligners offer the same benefits as traditional (wire and bracket) Orthodontic Treatment. That includes straight teeth, improved bite function, and aesthetic appearance. Clear Aligners also offer additional unique benefits of wireless dental treatment, including:
- Digital treatment planning
Clear Aligner therapy is planned using most advanced CAD/CAM technology. We utilise world’s no.1 “Trios3” intra-oral scanner from “3 Shape” to create 3D models of your teeth. They are arranged to reproduce your bite on a computer screen. Each tooth is then individually moved on the 3D model in computer. With this process we adjust your bite and create a plan for your actual dental treatment. This essentially helps to create the path of moving your teeth in desired position, even before your treatment begins. This increases the success rate and reduces treatment time.
- Improved hygiene
Clear Aligners are removable. So, you can easily brush and floss your teeth like normal. There are no chance for bacteria to stick to, which reduces the risk of white spot lesions (initial caries). Moreover, your custom aligners can be supplemented with Fluoride. The Fluoride will harden your tooth enamel if your teeth are prone to white spots or cavities.
- Aesthetics
The transparent trays are virtually undetectable in your mouth. This means that you can go on with your normal social life like normal, throughout your treatment. You don’t have to hide your smile in public, plus the fact that you’re improving your smile will gradually build your confidence and self-esteem.
- Comfort
There is no awkward adjustments associated with the wires and brackets of traditional braces. This makes clear aligners comfortable and convenient treatment choice.
Is Invisalign Worth The Money?
Invisalign is an excellent modern option for most patients, but it’s not for everyone. The aligners generally work best for adults and teens with mild-to-moderate orthodontic issues. Cases that are more complex may require more precise tooth control and movement than a Clear Aligner can offer.

How Does Clear Aligner Therapy Actually Move My Teeth?
Clear Aligner Therapy (CAT) is growing in popularity. If you are in need of Orthodontic treatment, you may have some questions about the different options. One common question is how does Clear Aligner therapy work to move teeth?
First, let’s explain what CAT is. CAT uses series of clear, soft Aligners that are worn for a certain period to gently guide teeth to their new positions. The Aligners are removable and comfortable to wear. But how do they move the teeth?
Simply, your Aligners will apply directed and controlled pressure to the teeth to guide them into their planned positions. Each set of your Aligners will be perfectly calibrated to achieve a certain movement, so that by the end of your treatment, all your teeth will be in their new desired positions.
There is one main difference between how Braces move teeth and how Aligners move teeth. Braces utilise brackets and wires, apply a pull force to shift teeth. Aligners, however, use a push force to gently guide the teeth.
Your orthodontist will create a fully customised treatment plan. Your Aligners will place a precisely controlled level of force to the teeth to guide them into their ideal positions in a more convenient and aesthetic way than regular braces. You won’t need to visit your orthodontist every couple of weeks to have your wires tightened. You will instead simply move to your next set of aligners following the schedule set forth by your Orthodontist.
