The purpose of this research study is to see if Nighttime Aligners (worn 10-12 hours per day or night) are effective and safe for tooth movement and if so, how they compare with the standard Daytime aligners (worn 20-22 hours per day), in adults and children from 12 years of age and older. It will investigate the efficacy and performance of the treatments, as well as the safety of the investigational device and comparator. The main objectives are: * Comparison between the two groups concerning actual vs planned tooth movements (measured by changes in tooth position) * Comparison between the two groups concerning the incidence of device or dental related AEs. * Overall dentist and participant satisfaction with the treatment. Participants will: * Be given orthodontic aligner therapy with the Daytime (20-22h/day) or Nighttime (10-12h/day) Aligners (randomly assigned) * Attend approximately 5 study during approximately 8-10 months

Orthodontic treatment has been revolutionized by clear aligner therapy, offering patients a more esthetic and comfortable alternative to traditional braces. In 1999, Align Technology introduced Invisalign. As Invisalign has increased in popularity and demand over the past two decades, clinical trials have shed light on the efficacy of Invisalign treatment. there have been changes in the Invisalign protocol such as introduction of SmartForce features in 2008, such as optimized attachments as well as the implementation of SmartTrack aligner material in 2011. Compared to conventional fixed orthodontic appliances, Invisalign cannot be adjusted on a visit-to visit basis. If ideal tooth movement has not been achieved after completion of the first sequence of aligners, additional trays, known as refinement trays, are required.

The hypothesis of this project is that replacing the current 7-day wear protocol with a 3-day wear protocol, while integrating less tooth movement per aligner (reduce the amount of activation per aligner) may produce more consistent and continues orthodontic forces, therefore, increase the predictability, accuracy and outcomes achieved for various types of tooth movements and enhance the rate of tooth movement with the Invisalign system

Why Other Patients Applied

"I changed my diet in 2020 and I’ve lost 95 pounds from my highest weight (283). I am 5’3”, female, and now 188. I still have a 33 BMI. I've been doing research on alternative approaches to continue my progress, which brought me here to consider clinical trials."

"As a healthy volunteer, I like to participate in as many trials as I'm able to. It's a good way to help research and earn money."

"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

"I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

"I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."

Why We Started Power

We started Power when my dad was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, and I struggled to help him access the latest immunotherapy. Hopefully Power makes it simpler for you to explore promising new treatments, during what is probably a difficult time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Clear Aligners clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Clear Aligners clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Clear Aligners trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Clear Aligners is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Clear Aligners medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Clear Aligners clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Clear Aligners for Orthodontic Appliance Complications, Nighttime vs Daytime Clear Aligners and Invisalign Wear Protocols for Orthodontic Treatment to the Power online platform.
