First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study looks at the small tooth-colored bumps (attachments) used with Invisalign aligners to help move teeth. Researchers want to see which design—optimized or conventional—is placed more accurately and holds its shape longer. Thirty adults starting Invisalign treatment will have their attachments scanned right after placement and at follow-up visits over six months to measure precision and wear.
