Summary
This study tests SureSmile clear aligners in 90 adults with crooked teeth (malocclusion). It compares three different aligner edge designs to see which moves teeth most accurately. Participants wear the aligners as usual, and researchers measure tooth movement against predictions. The goal is to improve treatment precision and comfort.
