With ClearCorrect, you can submit a case for free and see exactly how many steps are planned in the 3D treatment setup. The information in the treatment setup can help you decide which treatment option you prefer to use for your patient. You can choose from three treatment options:

• Flex
• ONE
• Unlimited

With each of these options you can choose based on the number of aligners you feel will be best for the treatment.

If you're trying to optimize your overall cost over the entire treatment period, you'll need to weigh your options. With Flex, additional aligners (such as revisions, replacements, and retainers) are priced at the same rate as aligners for new cases. You'll also need a new treatment setup for any revisions. This can vary a lot from clinician to clinician and from patient to patient. 

Some people don't need anything but what's shown in the initial setup; others start over almost from scratch multiple times. Once these additional costs are factored in, Unlimited can end up being the more affordable option over time for many cases.

The ONE treatment option, gives you up to 24 sets of aligners and includes up to one year of treatment, one set of retainers, and one revision. 

There are no strict guidelines, but here are some rules of thumb for the types of treatment that might be best suited for each treatment option:

Flex

If you want the most affordable upfront cost, that's going to be Flex for all but the longest dual-arch cases. Flex is also a good option if you and your patient are prepared to deal with any additional costs that may come up during treatment.

Flex is great for:

• Treatment requiring 6 or fewer sets of aligners
• Treatment with a low probability of needing a revision
• Simple aesthetic corrections
• Single-arch treatment
• Minor orthodontic relapses
• Minor anterior movements
• Minor crowding or spaces
• Pre-braces adjustments
• Clinicians who have experience with clear aligners
• Clinicians who only want to pay for the approved setups, aligners and retainers needed

Note: Clinicians must consider the possibility of more costs for additional revision setups and aligners

ONE

• Perfect for the average, moderate corrections of low complexity cases, including:
  • Moderate to severe crowding and large spaces closure
  • Overbite and overjet reduction
  • Crossbite corrections
  • Improving tipped and rotated teeth
  • Reducing excessively proclined teeth 
• One flat rate for up to 24 sets of aligners
• Includes one revision of up to 24 sets of aligners, and one set of retainers

Note: Doctors must consider the possibility of more costs for additional revision setups and aligners

*Currently only available in the US and Canada

Unlimited

If you want the safest, most predictable option, you can't go wrong with Unlimited. Your costs will be covered for the next five years, no matter what happens.

Unlimited is ideal for:

• Treatment with a high probability of requiring 1 or more revisions
• Comprehensive treatment of complex malocclusions, including: 
  • Severe crowding and space closure
  • Midline alignment
  • Dental expansion
  • Horizontal and vertical corrections
  • Combination treatment with auxiliaries
    • Elastics
    • Mechanical distalizers 
    • Palatal expanders
  • Extraction cases
  • Non-compliant patients
  • Overbite and overjet correction
  • Correcting rotations and tipped teeth
  • Interrupted treatment, such as childbirth, military deployment, illness, etc.
• Long-term retention
• A clinician who’s not too familiar with how much treatment will be required to complete the case
• Clinicians who only want to pay one flat price for as many aligners and retainers as they will need for a term of five full years of treatment, including setups, revisions and replacements
