The Efficacy of the Invisalign® Aligner Technique: An Overview

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Developed in 1997 by two students at Stanford University, the Invisalign® system revolutionized orthodontic treatment by integrating digital modeling with clear aligner technology as an alternative to traditional bracket- based mechanics. Since the introduction of SmartForce and SmartTrack material, the efficacy of the treatment has improved. There is still a shortage of high-quality evidence concerning the treatment modality. In order to make the treatment with the aligners more efficient, a correct management of the ClinCheck® software and a proper use of the biomechanics are necessary. The aligned force-driven system should be taken into account when developing the digital planning.
