Angel Aligner is a clear aligner system made by Angelalign Technology, a company founded in 2003 and headquartered in Shanghai. Like Invisalign and Spark, it moves teeth with a series of removable, custom-made trays. We offer all three at our practice in Canberra City.
We recommend Angel Aligner only after assessing your teeth, gums and bite. If aligners are not the right tool for your case, we will explain the alternatives.
Angel trays use a multi-layer material Angelalign calls masterControl S, and treatment is planned on its iOrtho software. Angelalign describes several features that can be built into a plan:
Not every plan uses these features. Angel trays, like any aligner, are not invisible.
Both use custom trays planned digitally and changed in stages. They differ in manufacturer, tray material and planning software.
| Angel Aligner | Invisalign | |
|---|---|---|
| Manufacturer | Angelalign Technology (Shanghai) | Align Technology (USA) |
| Tray material | masterControl S | SmartTrack |
| Planning software | iOrtho | ClinCheck |
| Estimated cost at Civic Gentle Dental Care | $3,700 – $8,490 | $4,200 – $8,990 |
For suitable cases, both are established systems that can achieve planned tooth movement when worn as prescribed. Compare all three systems on our clear aligners page.
Read our full guide to Angel aligners vs Invisalign, or see how Angel compares with Spark in Spark vs Angel aligners.
Spark, from Ormco, uses a material called TruGEN and is planned on Approver software. The two systems treat a similar range of cases. See our Spark aligners page for details.
Angel Aligner may suit adults and older teens with crowding, spacing, some bite concerns or teeth that have shifted since earlier treatment, provided they can wear the trays consistently.
Untreated decay or gum disease needs attention first. Significant jaw discrepancies may be better treated with braces or by a specialist orthodontist.
Our current price guide estimates Angel Aligner treatment at $3,700 to $8,490, $500 less than our Invisalign estimate of $4,200 to $8,990. Your fee depends on the complexity of your case, the number of aligners and any refinements.
Your first Angel Aligner consultation is complimentary. Interest-free payment plans are available through external providers, subject to approval. Some extras policies with orthodontic cover contribute, so check with your fund.
Angel Aligner treatment carries the same risks as other aligner systems. These include soreness with new trays, temporary speech changes and gum irritation. Other risks are decay if hygiene slips, root shortening and movements that are not fully achieved. Treatment length cannot be guaranteed. Read about treatment risks, recovery and alternatives.

Angelalign Technology is headquartered in Shanghai, China, and supplies aligners internationally.
Limited movements can take a few months and broader cases 12 months or longer. Your plan includes an estimate, but timing can change.
Rinse them whenever you take them out and brush gently with a soft brush and cool water. Avoid hot water, which can warp the plastic.
