Motto Clear Aligners

Motto Clear aligners represent a contemporary and accessible option for individuals seeking to straighten their teeth. This brand is exclusively offered through Aspen Dental, a large network of dental offices across the United States. Motto aims to bridge the gap between expensive orthodontic treatments and at-home, DIY solutions, providing a hybrid model that combines the convenience of clear aligners with professional, in-person dental supervision. The aligners themselves are crafted from transparent, high-quality thermoplastic material, making them virtually invisible when worn. This discreet aesthetic is a significant appeal for many patients, particularly adults and teens concerned about the appearance of traditional metal braces. Motto's technology is designed to move teeth efficiently and comfortably, applying gentle, consistent pressure to gradually shift teeth into their desired positions. The aligners are also noted for their antibacterial properties, resisting odors and stains, and feature smooth, scalloped edges for a more comfortable and precise fit. Motto Clear Aligners are designed for mild to moderate misalignment cases, including crowded teeth, spacing issues, overbites, underbites, and crooked teeth. Treatment plans are custom-crafted based on a precision digital scan taken at an Aspen Dental office, and patients often receive their first set of aligners on the same day. The treatment process involves a series of aligners, with each set worn for approximately two weeks before progressing to the next. A key differentiator for Motto is the emphasis on doctor-led care, with patients having regular in-person check-ups (typically every 6-10 weeks) at Aspen Dental offices. This oversight ensures the treatment progresses correctly and allows for real-time adjustments and professional guidance, unlike many direct-to-consumer aligner models. Financially, Motto Clear Aligners are positioned as an affordable alternative to more expensive options like Invisalign, often costing around $2,999, which typically includes customized aligners, office visits, and a post-treatment retainer. They also offer flexible payment options and may be covered by dental insurance, HSA, or FSA plans. The average treatment duration can be as short as six months, depending on the complexity of the case. Motto also offers a "MottoMonitoring™ app" for virtual check-ins, complementing the essential in-office visits.
