The Invisalign® System consists of a series of clear plastic aligners that are intended to
replace conventional wire and bracket technology for many orthodontic cases. Each custom
manufactured aligner exerts gentle, continuous forces to move teeth incrementally from their
original state to a final, treated state. The aligners are designed to optimally move each
tooth at a speed that follows physiologic principles. The purpose of this study is to
demonstrate that changing aligners weekly provides similar results to changing aligners every
two weeks.
