Motto Clear Aligners

Motto Clear aligners are a clear aligner solution for teeth straightening, exclusively offered and supported by Aspen Dental. Launched to provide an accessible and convenient alternative to traditional braces, Motto focuses on delivering effective results for mild to moderate orthodontic cases. Technology and Effectiveness: Motto Clear Aligners are distinguished by their "dual-activated" material, which is designed to maintain effectiveness throughout the treatment period, leading to consistent and predictable tooth movement. The aligners are custom-crafted based on precise digital scans of the patient's teeth. They are also designed to be anti-bacterial, odor-resistant, and stain-resistant for a more hygienic and aesthetic experience. Motto aligners are effective in correcting various misalignment issues, including crowded teeth, spacing problems, and certain bite irregularities. Treatment plans often result in a straighter smile in an average of 6 months. Treatment Process: The Motto Clear Aligner journey typically begins with an initial consultation at an Aspen Dental office, where a 3D scan of the patient's teeth is taken. A personalized treatment plan is then developed, and patients can often receive their first set of aligners on the same day. Patients wear a series of aligner trays, typically changing them weekly or bi-weekly as directed by their doctor. The aligners should be worn for approximately 22 hours per day for optimal results, being removed only for eating, drinking (anything other than water), and oral hygiene. Motto also incorporates "MottoMonitoring," a virtual check-in system where patients can send photos of their progress via a smartphone app, minimizing the need for frequent in-office visits. Periodic in-person check-ups are also part of the doctor-led care to ensure treatment is progressing as expected. Affordability and Accessibility: A key aspect of Motto Clear Aligners is their affordability and accessibility, being offered at a competitive price point (around $2,999 for mild to moderate cases, which includes aligners, office visits, and a retainer). Aspen Dental facilitates various payment options, including accepting most insurance, HSA, and FSA plans, and offering flexible financing. This integration with the extensive Aspen Dental network means patients have access to professional dental supervision and support throughout their treatment, distinguishing Motto from some direct-to-consumer aligner brands. Patient Experience and Benefits: Motto emphasizes a premium and convenient patient experience. The clear and removable nature of the aligners offers a discreet alternative to metal braces, appealing to adults seeking aesthetic orthodontic solutions. Patients report satisfaction with the convenience of appointments at Aspen Dental, the ease of switching aligners, and the relatively quick transformation of their smiles. Motto also includes a professional teeth whitening kit and a custom-crafted retainer as part of the treatment package, aiming for comprehensive smile improvement and maintenance. The "MottoAssured" promise also provides a satisfaction guarantee, ensuring patients love their new smile if they comply with the treatment plan.
