First seen Mar 05, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study tested two kinds of shape-memory aligners—one directly 3D-printed and one thermoformed—to see which straightens crowded lower front teeth faster and more accurately. Sixteen adults with mild-to-moderate crowding (4–6 mm) wore the aligners, and researchers measured how much crowding was relieved per month. They also tracked patient comfort and how well the aligners kept their color.
