Motto Clear Aligners

Motto Clear aligners is a modern and affordable clear aligner treatment system, launched in 2020 and exclusively available through the extensive network of Aspen Dental practices across the United States. It distinguishes itself by combining the convenience and aesthetic appeal of clear aligners with essential in-person dental supervision, offering a "hybrid approach" that sets it apart from direct-to-consumer models that often lack professional oversight. Motto aligners are crafted from transparent, high-quality thermoplastic material, making them virtually invisible and a discreet option for individuals seeking to straighten their teeth. The technology behind Motto features a unique three-layer design with dual-shell materials, engineered to deliver consistent yet gentle force for efficient and comfortable teeth movement. This design also provides advantages like reduced initial discomfort (40% less force at insertion) and enhanced stain and odor resistance compared to some competitors. The treatment process with Motto Clear Aligners begins with a comprehensive in-office examination and a precision digital scan of the patient's teeth. A custom-crafted treatment plan is then developed, outlining the series of aligners designed to gradually shift teeth into their desired positions. Patients typically wear each set of aligners for 1-2 weeks, for at least 22 hours a day, before progressing to the next. Regular in-person check-ups, usually every 6-10 weeks at an Aspen Dental office, ensure the treatment is progressing correctly and allow for any necessary adjustments. This doctor-led approach is a core tenet of Motto's philosophy, emphasizing safety and optimal results. Motto is designed to address a range of mild to moderate orthodontic issues, including crowded teeth, spacing problems, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. While treatment duration varies by individual, many patients achieve their desired results in as little as six months, which is often significantly faster than traditional braces. The system also includes a complimentary teeth-whitening kit and retainers at the end of treatment to help maintain the new smile. Financially, Motto Clear Aligners aims to be more accessible, often costing less than other premium clear aligner brands like Invisalign. Aspen Dental offers various financing options, accepts insurance, and allows the use of FSA/HSA dollars to make treatment affordable. The company also provides an app, MottoMonitoring™, for virtual check-ins, complementing the in-office visits and providing additional convenience for patients to track their progress.
