Angel Aligners

Angel Aligners represent the cutting edge in clear aligner technology. Known for their exceptional clarity, these aligners are nearly invisible, allowing you to straighten your teeth without the aesthetic impact of metal braces. Angel Aligners are made from aligner material that not only offers improved comfort but also ensures efficient and effective tooth movement.

Benefits of Angel aligners include:

Self-adaptive material: masterControl S has the perfect combination of rigidity and flexibility to effectively manage different types of tooth movements.
Comfortable experience: High elasticity and improved memory materials create gentle and constant force to provide more accurate tooth movement and better comfort for patients.
Fully trimmed aligner for better comfort: The edge of the aligner is expertly trimmed and polished along the patients’ teeth to provide precise control and superb comfort.
Easy to wear: masterControl S is a flexible and patient friendly material, making it easy to put on and remove aligners.
IRS: The Intelligent Root System allows more comprehensive diagnosis and helps your doctor provide a safer and more precise treatment.
angelButton™: The angelButton™ is the world’s first integrated button for elastic wearing, which can reduce revisit frequency and provide better comfort for patients.

Virtually Invisible

One of the most appealing aspects of clear aligners is their near invisibility. Teens can straighten their teeth without the worry of traditional metal braces, allowing them to smile confidently throughout their treatment.

Removable for Easy Cleaning

Unlike fixed braces, clear aligners can be removed. This means teens can maintain their oral hygiene more effectively, reducing the risk of plaque buildup and gum disease.

No Food Restrictions

With clear aligners, there’s no need to avoid favorite foods like popcorn or hard candies. Teens can simply remove their aligners during meals, enjoying the freedom to eat whatever they want.

Comfort and Safety

The smooth plastic of clear aligners minimizes irritation to the lips and cheeks. For teens involved in sports or music, aligners offer a safer alternative without sharp edges or wires.

How do clear aligners work?

Clear aligners work by applying controlled force to your teeth to gradually move them into alignment. You’ll wear each set of aligners for about one to two weeks before switching to the next set in the series, progressively moving your teeth over time.

Can I eat and drink with my aligners in?

While you can drink water with your aligners in, it’s recommended to remove them when eating or drinking anything else. This not only prevents staining and damage to the aligners but also makes it easier to maintain good oral hygiene.

How long will my treatment last?

The duration of treatment varies depending on the individual and the complexity of the case. On average, treatment with clear aligners can take between 12 to 18 months, although many patients are able to start seeing results in tooth movement in just a few weeks.

Are the aligners comfortable?

Clear aligners are custom-made to fit your teeth precisely, which generally makes them more comfortable than traditional braces. Some patients may experience temporary discomfort when switching to a new set of aligners, but this typically subsides after a few days.
