How Invisalign Works Under the Hood
SmartTrack material is Align's own aligner polymer, built to keep force consistent from day one to day fourteen of each tray and to fit more snugly than generic materials.
ClinCheck software produces the digital treatment plan — a stage-by-stage simulation your clinician approves before manufacture, and one you can usually see for yourself up front.
iTero scanning replaces traditional impressions with a digital intraoral scan, producing a precise 3D model in minutes. It feeds straight into ClinCheck and tracks progress at reviews — most Invisalign providers in Lower Baxenden use it as standard.
Attachments are the small bonded bumps that let aligners grip and control harder movements. They're tooth-coloured, removed at the end, and used in the majority of cases.
