What's New in Invisalign
Research published in the *American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics* has shown that Invisalign's SmartForce attachments — the small tooth-coloured buttons placed on certain teeth — significantly improve the predictability of tooth movements like rotation and extrusion. These attachments help aligners grip teeth more effectively, which is especially important for complex cases. If your treatment plan includes attachments, they are a clinically supported tool designed to help you get a more accurate final result.
Align Technology has continued advancing its iTero scanner integration with Invisalign treatment planning, allowing dental teams to show patients a simulated outcome of their smile before treatment even begins. Clinical data collected through Align's outcome studies suggests that this digital workflow improves treatment efficiency and helps reduce the number of refinement aligners some patients need. For patients in Calgary considering clear aligner therapy, this technology means a more predictable process from your first scan through to your final aligner.
