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 turns the scan into a staged animation of your tooth movement, which the treating clinician adjusts and signs off before the aligners are produced.

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 Pen-y-fai use it as standard.

Attachments are discreet composite nubs placed on certain teeth so the tray can achieve rotations and vertical shifts it couldn't manage on shape alone. Nearly all cases use some.
