Motto Clear Aligners

Motto Clear aligners is a clear aligner solution developed by The Aspen Group (ADMI) and offered exclusively through their extensive network of independently owned Aspen Dental offices across the United States. Unlike many direct-to-consumer aligner brands, Motto strongly emphasizes doctor-led, in-person care from consultation to completion, ensuring professional oversight throughout the treatment process. This approach aims to provide patients with the confidence of expert guidance, addressing concerns about the lack of professional supervision often associated with purely at-home aligner kits. Motto Clear Aligners utilize advanced clear aligner technology, crafting their aligners from a transparent, durable, yet flexible thermoplastic material. These aligners are laser-cut to seamlessly conform to teeth and gum lines, designed for comfort and minimal irritation. They also incorporate antibacterial properties to resist odors and stains, maintaining their near-invisibility during wear. The treatment involves a series of custom-crafted aligners, each designed to gradually shift teeth into the desired position over time, with patients typically wearing each set for about two weeks. A key differentiator for Motto is its commitment to affordability and convenience. While traditional braces can cost significantly more, Motto offers a flat rate, often around $2,999, which typically includes the full treatment plan, retainers, and even a teeth-whitening kit. They also provide flexible payment options, including financing, insurance, and the ability to use FSA/HSA dollars, making treatment accessible to a wider range of patients. Furthermore, Aspen Dental's extensive network of over 1,000 offices nationwide allows for walk-in appointments and extended hours, along with in-office technology that can enable patients to receive their first aligner tray on the same day as their initial visit, reducing waiting times. Motto Clear Aligners are designed to treat a range of mild to moderate malocclusions, including overbites, underbites, spacing issues, crossbites, crowded teeth, and crooked teeth. The average treatment time can be as short as six months, which is often quicker than traditional braces. While in-person visits are central to their model, Motto also offers the MottoMonitoring™ app for virtual check-ins, complementing rather than replacing essential in-office guidance. This blended approach provides patients with both the convenience of digital tracking and the security of professional support.
