FAS Aligner System

Bringing a new philosophy to the world of aligners

Here it is – The aligner system that looks at aligner treatments just the way you would look at traditional treatments with fixed orthodontic appliances. For our team of orthodontists each case is first and foremost a patient. And every patient is unique. With this in mind we create realistic and individual treatment plans under the motto “As unique as you are”. And digital or not – instead of using artificial intelligence this planning is done by real orthodontist for real patients.

Advanced diagnostics

Optional use of CBCT/3D x-rays and dynamic records

→ Visualization of real roots

→ Evaluation of bone offering and quality

→ Consideration of the arc of closure and dynamic forces created by the movements

FAS Diagnostics

Whether 2D, 3D or 4D data – a comprehensive and accurate diagnosis is the basis of successful treatments. Well-planned aligner treatments lead to esthetically pleasing, long-term stable results – and above all, they are also functionally correct due to the orthopedically stable occlusion.

2D Data

Intraoral and facial photos, Panoramic X-ray, lateral x-ray

2D Data

Evaluation of tooth status, occlusion, profile and smile line.

3D Data

Intraoral scans and CBCT/3D x-rays

3D Data

Scans are the basis for digital planning. With the help of a CBCT/3D x-ray we can visualize the real roots together with their position and consider this data in the treatment plan. Integration of the condyles into the treatment plan is also possible.

4D Data

Dynamic records of real jaw movements

4D Data

Dynamic records of the movements of the mandible allow us to implement the dynamic forces, e.g. during mastication, into the treatment plan in order to achieve long-term stable results and occlusion.

FAS STOP and GO®

STOP and GO® is a verification step built in e.g. after difficult movements. Aligners are delivered up to this stage and then it is on you to evaluate whether the objectives planned up to this stage have been achieved.

Go! – Treatment progress according to plan

We simply continue with the original plan.
We fabricate the rest of the aligners and ship them to you.

STOP! – In case of deviations

You take new scans of the current situation.
You upload the new data.
Our team modifies the OcclusalDesign® based on new data.
You approve the OcclusalDesign® and we fabricate new aligners.
