Motto Clear Aligners

Motto Clear aligners are a proprietary brand of clear aligners offered exclusively through Aspen Dental, a large network of dental clinics across the United States. This brand is positioned as a modern, affordable, and convenient alternative to traditional braces and other clear aligner systems like Invisalign. Motto Clear Aligners are custom-made, transparent thermoplastic trays designed to gradually shift teeth into their desired positions. The treatment process typically begins with a consultation at an Aspen Dental office, where a 3D scan of the patient's mouth is taken to create a personalized treatment plan. Motto emphasizes doctor-led care, with dental professionals guiding patients throughout their smile journey, including in-person visits and virtual check-ins through the MottoMonitoring app. A key differentiator for Motto is its dual-activated material, which is engineered to move teeth more consistently and predictably than some alternative options. These aligners are also designed for comfort, being smooth, flexible, and virtually invisible. They are removable, offering convenience for eating, drinking (anything other than cold water), and maintaining oral hygiene. Motto Clear Aligners are generally suitable for individuals with mild to moderate orthodontic issues such as crowded teeth, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. While they aim for fast results, with an average treatment time of under 6 months for many cases, the exact duration can vary based on the complexity of the individual's needs. The cost for mild to moderate cases is stated to be $2999, which includes the customized aligners, office visits, a professional-grade whitening kit, and a custom-crafted retainer. They are HSA and FSA eligible, and many insurance plans can help cover the cost. After the aligner treatment is complete, patients transition to wearing a retainer, with an optional MottoRetain™ program available to cover replacements for up to 8 retainers within two years. Motto also offers a "MottoAssured™" guarantee, promising satisfaction with the new smile, provided refinement requests are made within 30 days of completing the last aligner step and before receiving the retainer.
