Introduction to clear aligners: is it for you?
What you will learn
Decide with information, not assumptions.
Most dentists who hesitate on clear aligners have one thing in common: they were never shown the real clinical picture. This course fixes that in one hour.
- Which cases are right for a general dentist to treat
- What clear aligners can and cannot do (honestly)
- How to evaluate your readiness before spending anything

One topic. Learned properly.
24 self-paced courses built around the clinical decisions you face every week. Start where your gaps are and build from there.

Foundation Core Advanced
Foundation 3 CE MOCA 101
Case Selection
A systematic protocol for deciding who gets aligners, who doesn't, and how to explain the difference to patients with confidence.
Foundation
Essential diagnosis and simplified cephalometric analysis
Read skeletal patterns, identify dentoalveolar discrepancies, and make treatment decisions grounded in real diagnostic data.
Foundation 3.5 CE MOCA 101
Consultation, Scanning and Records
Build a consistent new patient workflow from first impression through records and case presentation. The setup that makes everything downstream easier.
Foundation 4 CE MOCA 101
Diagnostic and treatment planning
From cephalometric analysis to case formulation, a systematic decision-making process that drives predictable outcomes across every case type.
Foundation 3.5 CE MOCA 101
Basic tooth movement mechanics
The forces, moments, and clinical consequences that determine whether teeth move as planned. Stop guessing and start predicting.
Core 1.5 CE MOCA 101
IPR
Amounts, timing, instruments, and the clinical decisions that separate effective stripping from iatrogenic damage. Do this right, every time.
Core 1.5 CE MOCA 101
Attachments 101
The most misunderstood tool in clear aligner treatment. Why they work, when to use them, and how to place them predictably every time.
Core 5.5 CE MOCA 101
ClinCheck® 101
A complete walkthrough of the digital treatment planning platform. From setup to staging, build plans that translate to real clinical results.
Core 2.5 CE MOCA 101
Prescription and communication
Write digital prescriptions that technicians understand and that protect your clinical intent. What gets written is what gets built.
Core 2 CE MOCA 201
Clinical preferences
Aligner systems differ in ways that matter clinically. Compare features, understand the trade-offs, and choose what fits your practice and your patients.
Core 2 CE MOCA 201
How to use elastics
Protocols, timing, and patient management strategies that make elastics a reliable clinical tool instead of a source of unpredictable side effects.
Core 2.5 CE MOCA 201
ClinCheck® Pro
Advanced staging tools, overcorrection strategies, and the features most providers never touch. For dentists ready to own their digital planning.
Core 2.5 CE MOCA 101
Delivery and follow-up appointments
Structured protocols for delivery, monitoring, and managing patients through active treatment. What happens after the scan is as important as the plan.
Core 2.5 CE MOCA 101
Troubleshooting 101
Teeth not tracking. Unexpected movement. Posterior open bite. Identify problems early and correct them before they compound into full case corrections.
Core 1.5 CE MOCA 101
Retention
Treatment ends. Relapse begins without a plan. Protocols, patient communication, and managing the post-treatment issues that cost time and reputation.
Core 1.5 CE MOCA 201
CLEAR Path to Root Resorption
Recognize vulnerable patients before treatment starts and modify your plan to protect root length. The risk is real. The prevention is learnable.
Advanced 3 CE MOCA 201
Deep bite mechanics
One of the most common and most mismanaged presentations. Curve of Spee correction, intrusion protocols, and the pitfalls that keep a deep bite locked in.
Advanced 2.5 CE MOCA 201
Distalization mechanics with clear aligners
Class II correction through posterior movement. Clear limits on what is achievable, and how to protect anchorage while executing staged distalization.
Advanced 4.5 CE MOCA 201
Class II treatments with clear aligners
Protocols, case examples, and mechanics for correcting Class II discrepancies. Elastics, staging, mandibular advancement, and expectation management.
Advanced 3.5 CE MOCA 201
Intrusion and Extrusion mechanics
Vertical tooth movement is among the most difficult to achieve reliably. When it works, when it requires auxiliaries, and how to plan for both scenarios.
Advanced 6 CE MOCA 201
Treating anterior open bites with clear aligners
A deep dive into diagnosis, mechanics, and the patient factors that make open bite the hardest case to finish. Includes relapse prevention strategies.
Advanced 4 CE MOCA 201
Ectopic cuspids
Diagnosis, staging, and interdisciplinary coordination for impacted and ectopic canines treated with clear aligners. A protocol that protects the tooth and the timeline.
Advanced MOCA 201
Preventive and Interceptive orthodontics: when to use clear aligners
Early treatment indications, timing principles, and case selection for the developing dentition. Know when to intervene and when waiting produces a better outcome.
