Bonded attachments with Ceram.x Spectra® ST universal composite restorative for SureSmile® Clear Aligners
Initial situation of the patient
After a thorough examination and discussion of the patient's dental history, Dr. Silveira determined that a SureSmile® Clear Aligner treatment would be the best course of action to gradually move the patient’s teeth into the desired position. The main goals of this treatment were to align the upper lateral incisors, improve overall guidance and occlusion.

Diagnosis
The main goals of this treatment were to align the upper lateral incisors, improve overall guidance and occlusion.
Treatment Plan
- To prepare for the treatment, Dr. Silveira took digital impressions of the patient's teeth using a PrimeScan® intraoral scanner which allowed him to create a custom treatment plan tailored to the patient's specific needs and goals.
- Using dental treatment software, it was possible to show the patient a visual representation of how the teeth would gradually move into the desired position throughout the course of the treatment, enabling realistic expectations for the outcome.
- Once the treatment plan was finalized, a series of custom SureSmile® Clear Aligners were designed to fit the patient's teeth precisely.
- Dr. Silveira also placed composite attachments which were made with Ceram.x Spectra® ST universal composite restorative to guide the movement of the teeth during the treatment process.
Workflow
Step 1: Prepare Teeth
- Isolate with cheek retractors
- Polish teeth with fluoride free pumice
- Rinse and dry teeth
- Apply etchant gel (DeTrey® Conditioner 36) for 30 seconds
- Apply suction, rinse and dry
Step 2: Apply Adhesive
- Apply Prime&Bond active® adhesive and agitate for 20 seconds
Step 3: Air dry adhesive
- Gently air dry each tooth for at least 5 seconds. Tooth surface should have a uniform, glossy appearance
Step 4: Light cure adhesive
- Light cure each treated tooth surface with SmartLite® Pro for 10 seconds
Step 5: Prepare attachment tray
Fill the attachment template with Ceram.x Spectra® ST composite. Compules® Tips are recommended for precise and easy placement.
Step 6: Pack composite
- A general IPC composite instrument was used to pack the composite into the attachment well.
- The Low Viscosity composite was used because it is easiest to adapt into shape.
Step 7: Clean extra composite
- Use a flocked applicator tip to clean around the attachment well prior to placement. This cleaning step before bonding will save chair time.
Step 8: Place tray
- The tray filled with composite is placed in patient’s mouth. Light pressure should be applied to each composite attachment to ensure adhesion.
Step 9: Light cure each attachment
- Each attachment was light cured with SmartLite® Pro for 10 seconds.
Step 10: Check for flash
- An ultraviolet or black light was used to easily identify any flash
Step 11: Flash Removal
- Enhance® finishing points were used to remove the remaining composite flash.
Step 12: Polish Attachment
- Final results after polishing with the Enhance® PoGo Polishing System.
- To remove attachment, use esthetic trimming and finishing carbide burs
