Developed through collaboration with world-renowned lingual leaders, Drs. Kyoto Takemoto and Giuseppe Scuzzo, Alias offers an aesthetic alternative to labial brackets or aligners, but with the efficiency of straight-wire mechanics. Alias’ unique square slot allows for optimized movement and the greater interbracket distances make the aligning stage easier. While also offering a bracket that is easier to bond, especially on small, maloccluded incisors, Alias encompasses the design features that make lingual orthodontics easier and more efficient.
With the increasing number of adults and teens seeking aesthetic options for orthodontic treatment, ALIAS Lingual Straight Wire offers the advantage of aesthetics without the compromise and compliance required with aligners. The combined efficiencies of Straight Wire and passive self-ligation allows you to achieve the results you want at a pace that keeps your patients smiling.
Virtually Invisible Alternative to Aligners
Aesthetic treatment that is practically undetectable.
