Online Clear Aligner Training from a Leading Global Expert
Plan, monitor and refine clear-aligner treatment—from foundational mechanics to interdisciplinary cases.
With Dr. Sandra Khong Tai
Course information
Connect the digital plan with every stage of treatment.
Study Dr. Sandra Khong Tai’s approach to clear-aligner therapy through twelve core modules, an introductory recording and a ClinCheck review session. The DentalEDX recordings move from basic principles into vertical correction, Class II and Class III treatment and extraction protocols.
Later modules focus on advanced ClinCheck techniques, monitoring, troubleshooting, finishing and retention. Mixed-dentition treatment, skeletal anchorage and interdisciplinary planning extend the discussion beyond the straightforward adult aligner case. Accompanying resources are organized beside their relevant lectures.

Who this course is for
For dentists and orthodontists developing their aligner treatment planning.
Best approached with a foundation in orthodontic diagnosis and tooth movement. The recorded cases and software discussions use Invisalign and ClinCheck.
Orthodontists refining digital plans
Review extraction mechanics, vertical correction and more advanced ClinCheck techniques.
Clinicians coordinating complex care
Explore mixed dentition, TADs and orthognathic treatment within an interdisciplinary plan.
The treatment sequence
A setup is the beginning—not the whole treatment.
Follow the plan from initial diagnosis through monitoring, finishing and retention.
The curriculum pairs malocclusion-specific modules with dedicated sessions on digital planning and treatment follow-up. Review those connections when comparing a proposed setup with the clinical progress of a case.
“
Consider the intended movement, the supporting mechanics and the follow-up decisions together.
What you’ll learn
From basic principles to finishing decisions.

Foundations and vertical control
Review clear-aligner principles alongside open-bite, crowding and deep-bite treatment.
