C5 Hidden Orthodontics concealed braces

Alta Smiles has launched C5 Hidden Orthodontics, touted to make quality orthodontic solutions more accessible and convenient through innovation and technology.

Invented by orthodontist Dr Benjamin Cassalia, the C5 Hidden Orthodontics is the next generation of the Wirelign technology Dr Cassalia invented.

The 5Cs of orthodontics

Designed to offer a discreet alternative to traditional braces and aligners, C5 uses tiny Super-flex adjustable wires. Bonded to the back of the patient’s teeth, the wires gently exert pressure to move the teeth to the desired position. The 5 Cs in the name represents: “concealed”, “customizable”, “comfortable”, “confidence”, and “convenience”.

“Alta Smiles was founded on the belief that world-class orthodontic care should be available to everyone – regardless of location,” said President and CEO Gary Giegerich.

“This core belief drove us to develop our proprietary orthodontic care delivery model whereby Alta Smiles provides a fully supported solution to both dentists and patients. Our highly credentialed orthodontists provide remote treatment planning to our dental Certified Providers for every patient appointment before and during treatment. This team approach to care is an industry first, which enables dentists to treat the full suite of orthodontic care options with total confidence.”

Fix-and-forget treatment option

Combined with Alta’s Opti-IP digital treatment planning protocols and V5x™ remote patient monitoring technology, the C5 Hidden Orthodontics is said to enable “truly hidden and totally comfortable” smile transformations.

“This “fix and forget treatment” is an option for teens and adults with mild to moderate tooth correction on the upper and lower front six teeth, and teeth crowding, spacing, and rotation,” Giegerich added.

“It’s ideal for anyone who would like to straighten their teeth and is particularly popular with people who have had braces in the past and their teeth have relapsed or shifted.”

In addition, Alta Smiles’ training program allows any dental office to perform the procedure.

Founded in 2019, Alta Smiles is a technology and services company specializing in the delivery of orthodontic care.
