How do you attach and remove SmileCareClub?

Question

Are there buttons like invisalign or is it more like a retainer?

Mark Weiser, DDS · Answer

No buttons or attachments are needed if doing SmileCareClub clear aligner treatment. In my experience, I have found no need, even in my practice.

Darren Wong, DDS · Answer

Some aligners use buttons (also called engagers or attachments) to help aligners fit tighter and move teeth. This is one way to move teeth.  Fortunately there are other options now on the market. Many patients don't like the buttons because they think they are unanesthetic and they can break. Other aligner companies, like SmileCareClub do not use them. The bio-mechanics work differently. The aligners are also trimmed differently to help them stay in tightly. SmileCareClub aligners do work like a retainer, but you have between 5 and 20 sequential retainers which are changed every 3 weeks. Each aligner moves your teeth up to 0.3mm.
