Motto Clear Aligners

Motto Clear aligners represent a modern orthodontic solution designed to straighten teeth discreetly and efficiently. Offered exclusively through Aspen Dental, a large network of dental clinics, Motto aims to provide an accessible and affordable alternative to traditional braces and other clear aligner brands like Invisalign. The aligners are custom-made, transparent trays crafted from a durable yet flexible, three-layer thermoplastic material. This advanced design is engineered to deliver precise and consistent force, gradually shifting teeth into their desired positions. Key features of Motto Clear Aligners include 40% less force at insertion for increased comfort and 150% better teeth movement over a 10-day wear period compared to some earlier-generation materials. Their scalloped edges are designed to conform seamlessly to the gumline, reducing irritation, and the material is antibacterial, resisting odors and stains effectively. Motto Clear Aligners are suitable for individuals with mild to moderate dental misalignments, including crowding, spacing issues, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Treatment plans are doctor-directed, with patients typically having an initial consultation where digital scans are taken to create a personalized treatment plan. Patients then receive a series of aligner trays, changing them every few weeks as directed. While primarily offering in-person care through Aspen Dental clinics, virtual monitoring is also a component of the treatment. A significant selling point for Motto Clear Aligners is their affordability, often costing less than traditional braces or Invisalign, with prices generally starting around $2,499 to $2,999 for mild to moderate cases. Aspen Dental also offers various financing options, and the treatment may be covered by dental insurance plans that cover traditional orthodontics. The average treatment duration is reported to be as little as 5.4 to 6 months, though this can vary based on the complexity of the individual case and consistent wear (recommended 22 hours per day). The treatment often includes a professional-grade whitening kit and a custom-crafted retainer to maintain the results.
