Lingual aligners for adults: how well do they work?
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.

This trial compares clear plastic aligners with fixed braces to improve mild overbite (Class II) in adults who have not had orthodontics before. It may help you understand which option works better for your bite and alignment while also checking fit and dental health needs.
This trial tests whether a new type of attachment (beveled) on clear aligners works better than standard attachments for moving teeth in adults. If you are getting aligner treatment and need certain tooth movements on both sides of your mouth, this study may help improve your results.
This trial studies whether Orthopulse light therapy (a form of light treatment) can help during orthodontic treatment with fixed braces. It’s for adults who need braces for crowded front lower teeth, and it will compare outcomes during the alignment phase.
This study compares two ways to straighten teeth: self-ligating braces (a type of bracket) and clear aligners (like Invisalign). It looks at how well each works to fix moderate crowding.
This study looks at how accurately clear aligners (invisible braces) move teeth. It is an observational study, meaning participants receive standard clear aligner treatment, and researchers track results. It may help you understand the benefits and expectations of clear aligner therapy.
This trial looks at clear braces (aligner) treatment for straightening teeth, using remote monitoring and computer-guided (AI) check-ins. It may help by making treatment progress easier to track and adjust.
