12 hours of continuous daily wear. Aligners changed at 7-day intervals or as instructed by dentist.

No. AirFlex^™ aligners will not increase your treatment duration. For example, if your treatment duration is of 12 months if wearing another aligners brand, your treatment duration will be of a comparable treatment time. The difference is that you will only need to wear your aligners continuously for 12 hours a day instead of the 20-22 hours required by other aligner brands.

No, AirFlex^™ aligners are the only patented and FDA-cleared aligner system designed explicitly for shorter wear time. Other leading brands require 20 to 22 hours of daily wear time versus 12 hours of continuous wear time for AirFlex^™.

There are other brands promoting night wear aligners, but AirFlex^™ aligners are the only patented and FDA-cleared aligners for 12 hours of continuous wear time. Shorter wear time means more time to live your life uninterrupted.

No, AirFlex^™ aligners with patented AirFlex^™ technology are designed to straighten teeth using gentle, optimal forces. Leading brand aligners exert more force, which may cause discomfort and pain. They also require 20 to 22 hours of wear time per day versus 12 hours of continuous wear time required for AirFlex^™ aligners.

AirFlex^™ is designed to deliver the same treatment duration and you may experience fewer unplanned modifications or refinements.
