Domestic Clear Aligner Treatment Guide

NanoLiner / Magic Align / Serafin

Advantages and Considerations of Domestic Devices

When researching clear aligners,

you may encounter more types of devices than expected.

From the overseas brands that first come to mind

to clear aligners developed using domestic technology,

each device differs slightly in its manufacturing process and features.

Clear aligner treatment does not

follow exactly the same process in every case.

Because there are differences in

how tooth movement is planned,

how the devices are manufactured,

wearing comfort, and maintenance,

it is important to choose the clear aligner that suits you!

Today, we will take a look at

NanoLiner, Magic Align, and Serafin,

which are manufactured domestically.

Why Domestic Clear Aligner Devices Have Advanced

In the past, clear aligners

were primarily known through overseas devices.

Recently, however,

as domestic dental technology and digital orthodontic systems have advanced,

various clear aligner devices have also been developed domestically.

With advances in

3D intraoral scanning,

digital tooth-movement analysis,

and customized device manufacturing,

it has become possible to establish more precise orthodontic plans,

while expanding the clear aligner options

that can be adapted to a patient's lifestyle.

Representative domestic clear aligner devices

include NanoLiner, Magic Align, and Serafin.

NanoLiner

Customized clear aligners with direct participation from the orthodontist in charge

The greatest feature of NanoLiner is

that the treatment plan is not completed solely through a digital program;

instead, the orthodontist responsible for the treatment

directly participates from the setup stage.

In clear aligner treatment, a setup

is the process of designing tooth movement at each stage,

from the tooth positions before orthodontic treatment

to the final desired positions.

During this process,

the predictability of the final result may vary depending on

which direction the teeth are moved,

how far they are moved,

and which teeth are adjusted first.

With NanoLiner,

the orthodontist directly participates in the setup process

and adjusts the treatment plan by considering

the patient's bite relationship,

the possible range of tooth movement,

and the final target positions.

Features of NanoLiner

1. Orthodontist-centered setup process

Clear aligner devices

are centered around digital technology,

but ultimately, it is the clinician's judgment that moves the teeth.

Rather than simply following an automated movement plan,

the process reflects the clinical judgment of an orthodontic specialist.

This is what distinguishes NanoLiner.

2. Stage-by-stage tooth movement design

Clear aligner treatment does not move the teeth all at once;

teeth are gradually moved by changing through a series of devices.

Therefore, at each stage,

it is important to finely adjust the amount and direction of tooth movement.

Considerations for NanoLiner

The participation of an orthodontic specialist in the design

does not mean that clear aligner treatment is possible for every malocclusion.

In cases of severe skeletal malocclusion

or when a large amount of tooth movement is required,

another orthodontic method may be more suitable.

Magic Align

Clear aligners designed with wearing comfort and orthodontic force in mind, using a multilayer material

Magic Align is

a domestic clear aligner system developed by Osstem Implant,

and its distinguishing feature is that it considers both

wearing comfort and orthodontic force through the structural characteristics of its material.

Because clear aligner treatment devices

must remain attached to the teeth for long periods,

it is important to balance two factors:

how comfortable they are

and how consistently they maintain force.

Materials that are too rigid

may create a greater foreign-body sensation when worn,

while insufficient elasticity can make it difficult

to deliver the force needed for tooth movement consistently!

Magic Align

uses a multilayer material structure to consider

wearing comfort,

durability,

and orthodontic force

as three key elements of a clear aligner treatment device.

Features of Magic Align

1. Flexible material structure

Magic Align is a device that emphasizes

soft and flexible material properties.

It is designed to help reduce discomfort in the mouth

during clear aligner treatment, which requires long-term wear.

2. Design that considers the gum line

Clear aligner devices

must consider not only the teeth they cover,

but also the boundary area where they meet the gums.

If the edge of the device irritates the gums,

discomfort may increase as wearing time becomes longer.

Considerations for Magic Align

Even a clear aligner with good wearing comfort

has limitations in moving teeth.

If tooth rotation,

substantial movement,

or complex bite adjustment

is required,

bracket orthodontics or auxiliary devices may also be considered.

Serafin

Clear aligners based on a digital system and triple multilayer materials

Serafin is

a domestic digital clear aligner treatment system developed by TNS,

Dentis's orthodontic-specialty subsidiary,

and is characterized by its digitally based diagnosis and design process.

Based on intraoral scan data,

setups are created in a dedicated program,

and individually customized devices are manufactured using 3D printing technology!

Serafin also

uses triple multilayer materials to help reduce device deformation,

maintain consistent orthodontic force,

and improve wearing convenience.

Features of Serafin

1. Digital orthodontic platform

Serafin

is based on a digital orthodontic system consisting of

intraoral scanning ->

digital setup ->

customized device manufacturing.

2. Triple multilayer material structure

Clear aligner devices

are not simply transparent plastic;

they are orthodontic devices that must deliver force to the teeth

and maintain their shape.

Through its multilayer material structure,

Serafin considers both orthodontic force and wearing comfort.

Considerations for Serafin

Even as digital technology advances,

the treatment plan remains the most important factor.

Even when the same device is used,

results may vary depending on the direction in which the teeth are moved.

Criteria for Choosing a Domestic Clear Aligner Treatment Device

NanoLiner,

Magic Align,

and Serafin.

All are clear aligner systems

developed on the foundation of domestic technology.

However, what is important in clear aligner treatment

is not which brand it is,

but what type of movement your teeth require,

whether that movement is possible with clear aligners,

and whether the plan accounts for the final bite.

When the technology of the device

and the orthodontic plan prepared by the clinician work together,

a more stable orthodontic result may be expected.

Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic

does not choose a clear aligner device first.

Instead, it analyzes the alignment of the teeth and bite condition,

confirms the possible orthodontic direction,

and then determines the appropriate device.

Clear aligner treatment

is not a simple treatment in which wearing invisible devices

causes orthodontic correction to be completed automatically.

It is a precise treatment created through

the combination of digital analysis and the clinician's orthodontic plan.
