As the market-leading clear aligner system, Invisalign is planned digitally from start to finish before a single tray is made. Several Waterham practices carry Invisalign certification at varying provider tiers. Every stage of movement is modelled and reviewed by your clinician before manufacture begins.
Invisalign Provider Tiers in Waterham
Provider tier (Provider, Preferred, Elite, Diamond) reflects how many Invisalign cases a practice completes each year. In Waterham it's a helpful proxy for experience — but it isn't the whole story, and case complexity should guide your choice.
When comparing providers, confirm whether the fee includes refinements and retainers, what scanning technology they use, and how often they review progress — each affects both outcome and total cost.

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 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 Waterham 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.
