Custom attachments for clear aligner therapy
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether custom-made attachment composites improve the effectiveness of clear aligners for treating mild-to-moderate crowding or spacing. It may help you achieve better tooth movement during orthodontic treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have all your permanent teeth fully grown in
- You have no bridges, crowns, or other prosthetic restorations
- You have mild to moderate crowding or spacing (2 to 6 mm) between your teeth
- You are planning to start clear aligner treatment at the study clinic between August 2025 and August 2026
- You are willing to participate and sign a consent form
- You have not had braces or clear aligners before

This study compares two types of tooth-colored materials used for the small bumps (attachments) placed on teeth during clear-aligner treatment. Researchers want to see which material causes less tooth staining and is easier for the dentist to remove.
This study tests how well Invisalign attachments work by comparing two different attachment designs placed on opposite sides of the mouth. It aims to find which type of attachment is more effective for moving teeth.
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 study tests two types of clear aligners to see which one feels more comfortable and works better for patients with mild to moderate crowding. It may help decide which aligner material is better for future patients.
This study tests two different ways of making clear aligners (custom plastic trays that move your teeth). Researchers want to see if 3D-printed aligners work as well as traditional heat-formed ones for mild crowding or spacing.
This study compares two different ways of making clear teeth aligners—one using 3D printing and one using heat-shaping—to see which one fits better and stays accurate over time. If you have healthy teeth and gums, you may wear an aligner for 4–6 months while researchers measure how well it works.
