Motto Clear Aligners

Motto Clear Aligners is a brand of transparent, custom-made orthodontic trays designed to gradually straighten teeth, offered exclusively through Aspen Dental. Unlike some direct-to-consumer aligner options, Motto emphasizes a doctor-led, in-person care model, ensuring professional oversight from consultation to treatment completion. This approach aims to provide more precise and predictable results, with dentists monitoring progress and making necessary adjustments. The treatment process with Motto Clear Aligners typically begins with an in-person consultation at an Aspen Dental office. During this visit, a 3D digital scan of the patient's teeth is taken, and a personalized treatment plan is developed, including a preview of the anticipated new smile. Patients then receive a series of aligner trays, which are typically swapped every one to two weeks. For optimal results, aligners should be worn for at least 22 hours per day, only removed for eating, drinking (anything other than cold water), and oral hygiene. Motto Clear Aligners are designed with advanced technology, featuring a unique 3-layer material. This includes a flexible inner shell and two durable outer shells, which are engineered to provide consistent pressure and efficient tooth movement while flexing with the teeth's natural motion. This "dual-activated" technology is claimed to generate better teeth movement force compared to some other aligners, with smooth, scalloped edges for enhanced comfort and reduced irritation. One of the key selling points of Motto Clear Aligners is their affordability, often priced at a flat rate of $2,999 for mild to moderate cases. This comprehensive price typically includes the initial consultation, all aligners, refinements, a professional teeth whitening kit (valued at $198), and a custom-crafted retainer. They also offer flexible payment options, including dental financing, insurance plans, and the acceptance of FSA/HSA dollars. Beyond in-person visits, Motto also incorporates digital convenience through its MottoMonitoring™ app. This app allows patients to track their progress with virtual check-ins, complementing the essential in-office guidance and support. The treatment is suitable for adults and teens with fully developed mouths who have mild to moderate crowding, spacing issues, or minor bite problems. While effective for these cases, Motto aligners may be less suitable for severe rotations or complex malocclusions. Motto Clear Aligners aim to provide a discreet, comfortable, and effective solution for achieving a straighter smile, backed by the extensive network and expertise of Aspen Dental.
