Clear Aligners: How They Work

Angel Aligner at North Ryde Dentistry

Angel Aligner is a clear aligner system made by Angelalign Technology, a company founded in Shanghai in 2003 and listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. It is one of three aligner systems we offer at our Macquarie Park practice, alongside Invisalign and Spark.

Angel Aligner works like other clear aligners: a series of removable trays moves your teeth in small, planned steps. Your first consultation is complimentary, and we’ll explain whether Angel Aligner, another system or braces suits your case. See all our clear aligner options.

What Angelalign Says About Its System

  • masterControl S material. Angelalign says its tray material is designed to apply steady force and stay clear during wear.
  • iOrtho planning software. Your dentist maps the movement of each tooth in 3D, and you can see the planned result before you start.
  • Intelligent Root System. The manufacturer says its planning takes root position into account, not only the crowns you can see.
  • angelButton and angelAttach. Angelalign’s attachment and auxiliary designs, used where a plan needs extra grip or control.

These are the manufacturer’s descriptions. Independent research comparing Angel Aligner directly with other brands is still limited.

Who Angel Aligner May Suit

Angel Aligner may be suitable for adults and teenagers with crowding, spacing, some bite problems or relapse after earlier braces. Your dentist will check your gums, any existing crowns or fillings and your bite before recommending it. Complex cases may be better treated with fixed braces or by a specialist orthodontist.

Angel Aligner Treatment Steps

  1. Complimentary consultation and discussion of options
  2. 3D iTero scan, photos and any X-rays needed
  3. Review of your iOrtho plan, fee and expected timeframe
  4. Fitting of your first aligners and any attachments
  5. Change trays as directed, with reviews every 6 to 10 weeks
  6. Retainers to hold the result

Angel Aligner or Invisalign?

At our practice Angel Aligner is $500 less than Invisalign at each end of the fee range. Both use clear trays and 3D planning; they differ in material, software and manufacturer features. Read our guide to Angel Aligner vs Invisalign, or compare Spark vs Angel Aligner.

Risks and Limitations

Clear aligner treatment is not suitable for everyone, and results vary between patients. Common effects include temporary tenderness when you start a new set, a slight lisp for the first few days and the need to remove the trays to eat and drink anything other than water. Treatment depends on wearing the aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day; if they are worn less, teeth may not track to plan and extra aligners or a longer treatment time may be needed. Some plans need small tooth-coloured attachments or gentle reshaping between teeth (interproximal reduction). Teeth can drift back after treatment if retainers are not worn as directed, and existing gum disease or decay must be treated first.

Any invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner. Read more about treatment risks.
