The Aligner Intensive Fellowship

and Align Technology have teamed up to offer...

Invisalign® Fundamentals 2.0

for Residents and Faculty

We all know that clear aligner orthodontics is in ever-increasing demand. With our vast clear aligner experience in private practice, we understand how important this education is for emerging orthodontists. That's precisely why we have teamed up with Align Technology to offer Invisalign Fundamentals 2.0 at no cost to orthodontic residents and full-time faculty. Our goal is to complement the curriculum of your residency program to ensure that you have a robust, clear aligner education and a solid foundation before graduating.

Upon course completion, participants will gain the following:

  • A thorough understanding of aligner tooth movement fundamentals with a focus on force-driven versus displacement-driven systems.
  • Ideal digital treatment-plan design methods for the majority of aligner-eligible malocclusions.
  • The ability to design force systems and attachments for effective aligner malocclusion treatment, including deep bite, open bite, Class II, and Class III, and early treatment.
  • Detailed design applications for adolescent aligners where Phase 1 movements may be indicated.
  • A strategic thought process for addressing refinements and occlusal finishings unique to aligner treatment.

Here's how it works:

  • To register for Invisalign Fundamentals, your residency status must be verified by your Program Director, who will then provide you with a registration link.
  • Each resident can only enroll in a single cohort.  You may not enroll in a second cohort for any reason.
  • The Invisalign Fundamentals course does NOT include CE.
  • Registration for the current course is only open for a limited time.
  • Once registered, you may begin the course right away.

    Annual Cohort Schedule 2025

    • First Cohort: January 1 - June 30
    • Second Cohort: July 1 - December 31

    Enrollment and Completion Guidelines

    • Residents: Residents are required to complete the curriculum within their assigned 6-month cohort. Failing to meet the completion deadline results in the loss of content access, with no re-enrollment permitted.
    • Faculty: Faculty have rolling access to the comprehensive version of the curriculum, allowing them to join at any time and use the content continuously without a required completion timeline. 

We look forward to having you in the course and hope

you will take full advantage of this rare and valuable opportunity!
