As the market-leading clear aligner system, Invisalign is planned digitally from start to finish before a single tray is made. Certified providers across Plashett deliver it through Align Technology's audited, consistent system. Every stage of movement is modelled and reviewed by your clinician before manufacture begins.
How Invisalign Works Under the Hood
SmartTrack material is Align Technology's proprietary aligner plastic, engineered to apply consistent, gentle force across planned movements. It's designed to fit more precisely and hold predictable force over the life of each tray.
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 does away with physical impressions — a quick digital scan builds the 3D model, feeds ClinCheck, and monitors tracking at each review. It's routine among Plashett providers.
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.
