The systematic approach
for a comfortable alignment of your teeth.

The CA® CLEAR ALIGNER concept uses resin splints, so-called aligners, fabricated individually by your orthodontist. Please find the typical treatment process below:

  • Anamnesis/consultation
    Your orthodontist examines your teeth position, verifying whether it can be treated by the CA® CLEAR ALIGNER splint system.
  • Model fabrication
    If you decide in favour of the CA® CLEAR ALIGNER treatment, your orthodontist will take an impression of your teeth, forming the basis for a so-called situation model.
  • Set-up and splint fabrication
    Based on this situation model, the first step of your teeth correction will be computer-simulated. Single teeth of the model are cut off and minimal movements are done. The result will be the so-called set-up, the basis for your first CA® CLEAR ALIGNER splints. Your orthodontist will initially fabricate three CA® CLEAR ALIGNER splints, basing on each other, which are normally worn 1-2 weeks each.
  • Adaptation
    The next time you’ll come to your orthodontist’s practice you’ll receive the first set of CA® CLEAR ALIGNER splints. Your orthodontist will examine carefully the fit of your first splint. You’ll feel the splint just as a slight pressure on your teeth which are now being aligned smoothly in the required way.
  • First wearing step
    Contrary to other aligner systems, in the CA® CLEAR ALIGNER treatment you’ll be wearing three splints in each treatment step, consisting of different material thicknesses. During the first week you’ll wear a thin splint, guaranteeing your teeth can easily get used to the pressure exerted by the teeth correction. The next week you’ll wear a slightly thicker splint, followed by a harder one in week three and four. This procedure ensures correction of your teeth in a very smooth and careful way.
  • Treatment progress
    After having worn your first set of splints for three weeks, your orthodontist will take another impression and examine the development of your teeth position during the treatment. Based on the new situation, another set of splints will be fabricated following the same procedure and again correcting your teeth step by step. This procedure will be repeated until the desired result of your treatment has been achieved. After treatment, it is recommended to wear a so-called CA® retention splint at night for approx. 12 months to ensure the treatment result.

Certified CA® CLEAR ALIGNER orthodontists in your area

Not every orthodontist can offer you the CA® CLEAR ALIGNER splint system for the correction of teeth position, as this concept is not an element of the classical orthodontic education, such as for example the correction by fixed brackets or by removable orthodontic plates. A special training with successive certification is the pre-condition for the CA® CLEAR ALIGNER treatment.

What is CA® CLEAR ALIGNER?

CA® CLEAR ALIGNER is the transparent splint system by SCHEU-DENTAL for the almost invisible correction of teeth position. For more than 85 years, SCHEU-DENTAL has been developing high-quality, innovative products for orthodontics, dentists and laboratories worldwide. CA® CLEAR ALIGNER has been developed especially for treating adults and allows aligning your teeth smoothly, without metal elements or orthodontic plates, using only transparent resin splints, the so-called aligners. The thicknesses of the custom-made splints vary between 0.5 to 0.75 mm offering the utmost in comfort for you – they are almost invisible and you can speak without any problems.

What are the advantages of CA® CLEAR ALIGNER versus fixed treatment?

CA® CLEAR ALIGNER splints:

  • are transparent and almost invisible
  • can be taken out at any time, e.g. for your snack at lunch time
  • are easy to clean
  • won’t affect your natural speech
  • are fabricated individually for you and adjusted to your treatment progress regularly
  • are comfortable to wear – only at the beginning you’ll feel a slight pressure
Who can be treated by CA® CLEAR ALIGNER?

CA® CLEAR ALIGNER has been developed especially for treating adults, but young persons, preferring an invisible way of teeth aligning and depending on the indication, can be treated with CA® CLEAR ALIGNER as well.

How long does the treatment with CA® CLEAR ALIGNER take?

The duration of treatment depends on many factors, such as your individual tooth position and your cooperation regarding the wearing time, on average the alignment will last 6-8 months.

How should the CA® CLEAR ALIGNER splints be cleansed?

You should always rinse your splints with water after wearing to avoid sediments and discoloration. Moreover, it is recommended to use a special cleansing care like CETRON®, which is available in your pharmacy. CETRON® will clean your splints lasting and with care – and it isn’t expensive at all.

Will it be sufficient to wear the CA® CLEAR ALIGNER splints only at night?

No. You have to take into account that the CA® CLEAR ALIGNER treatment replaces a fixed correction of tooth position and therefore you should wear your splint 24 hours, taking it out only short time, e.g. during your meals. This is the only way to assure the optimum treatment results in the scheduled treatment time.

What does a CA® CLEAR ALIGNER treatment cost?

Treatment expenses depend on your individual indication. Having taking your anamnesis, your certified orthodontist can make an estimate of the expected cost.

Who will fabricate the CA® CLEAR ALIGNER splints?

Your individual splints will be fabricated by your orthodontist or a laboratory he’ll choose.
