Consumer Alert | American Association of Orthodontists

If you watch television or use social media, you have probably noticed that direct-to-consumer aligner companies are popping up everywhere! Before you decide to proceed with a direct-to-consumer aligner company, the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) believes there are a number of factors and questions you need to consider. We strongly recommend doing some research and having an in-person consultation with a licensed dentist or orthodontist before beginning any type of orthodontic treatment. Trust your smile with a specialist!
