3D printed aligners may beat Old-School trays in Teeth-Straightening showdown

NCT ID NCT07496892

First seen Apr 06, 2026 · Last updated Jun 02, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study will compare how accurately 3D printed aligners move teeth versus standard thermoformed aligners in 28 people aged 12 to 25 with mild crowding of the lower front teeth. Participants will receive one type of aligner, and researchers will measure how close the final tooth positions match the planned positions. The goal is to see if 3D printing offers more precise tooth movement, not to test a new treatment or cure.
