Motto Clear Aligners

Motto Clear aligners represent a modern and accessible solution for teeth straightening, exclusively offered by Aspen Dental, one of the largest networks of dental offices in the United States. Launched with the aim of bridging the gap between expensive orthodontic treatments and less supervised direct-to-consumer options, Motto provides a hybrid approach that emphasizes both convenience and professional oversight. The aligners themselves are crafted from transparent, high-quality thermoplastic material, making them virtually invisible when worn. This discretion is a major appeal for individuals seeking to improve their smile without the noticeable appearance of traditional metal braces. Motto's technology involves three layers of durable, flexible materials engineered to move teeth efficiently and comfortably. Each aligner is laser-cut for a seamless fit along the gum line and possesses antibacterial properties to resist odors and stains. A key differentiator for Motto Clear Aligners is the doctor-led care model. Unlike some at-home aligner services, Motto requires in-person consultations and regular check-ups with an Aspen Dental professional throughout the treatment process. This ensures that the treatment plan is customized to the individual's specific needs and that progress is monitored effectively, allowing for adjustments and immediate support if issues arise. The process typically begins with a comprehensive in-office examination and a precision digital scan to create custom-made aligners. Patients often receive their first set of aligners on the same day as their initial visit, with subsequent sets exchanged according to a systematic schedule, usually every one to two weeks. Motto Clear Aligners are designed to address a range of mild to moderate orthodontic issues, including crowded teeth, spacing problems, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. The average treatment time can be as short as 5.4 to 6 months, significantly less than the typical 18-24 months for traditional braces. The cost of Motto Clear Aligners is positioned to be more affordable than traditional Invisalign, often at a flat rate that includes customized aligners, office visits, and a retainer for post-treatment maintenance. Financing options, as well as acceptance of most dental insurance, HSA, and FSA plans, further enhance accessibility. Beyond aesthetics and speed, Motto emphasizes comfort due to the precision-crafted, smooth, and scalloped edges of the aligners, which minimize irritation to gums. The removability of the aligners offers practical benefits, allowing users to eat and drink without restrictions and maintain better oral hygiene compared to fixed braces. Motto also offers a "Smile Satisfaction Promise," ensuring patients love their new smile if they comply with the doctor-directed treatment plan.
