Aligneurs Français
Aligneurs Français is a French clear-aligner brand operated by LAF SAS (registered office 10 rue de Penthièvre, Paris; aligners made in its Jura laboratory), positioned as a 100% made-in-France alternative to Invisalign and Dr Smile. It runs a doctor-directed, in-office model: the patient books a partner dentist near them, receives an in-clinic exam and impressions, and is fitted with PureFlex aligners changed every 10-15 days, with clinical check-ups every 2-3 months; it is not a mail-order at-home system. Treatment is prescribed and monitored by partner dentists and orthodontists and averages 6 to 9 months (about 3 to 6 for simple cases and 9 to 12 for complex ones). Published prices are €2,500, €3,000 and €4,000 for 6-, 9- and 12-month two-arch treatments (€2,000 to €5,000 on average by case), advertised as 20-30% below traditional solutions, with instalments arranged through the practitioner and free removable retention trays. It is sold only in France, exclusively through partner dental practices. Sources

What it can treat
In Aligneurs Français's own words: Correction of mild to moderate malocclusion (crowding, spacing, minor bite issues) in adults; Cosmetic teeth alignment / smile improvement; Only under the prescription and monitoring of a partner dentist or orthodontist. Sources
A series of custom thermoformed clear plastic trays apply gentle, staged force to move teeth toward a target position planned in 3D by the laboratory. Each tray is worn 10-15 days before the patient advances to the next. The trays are made from PureFlex, a BPA-free medical thermoplastic built from three elastomer layers in a double-shell polyurethane structure, thermoformed in the brand's Jura (France) laboratory. Treatment is prescribed and monitored by a partner dentist or orthodontist, with in-office check-ups roughly every 2-3 months. Sources

Dental bodies caution against straightening teeth without an in-person exam
The American Dental Association maintains a standing policy discouraging direct-to-consumer teeth straightening, reaffirmed in December 2023 on patient-safety grounds. The American Association of Orthodontists holds that treatment should be under the in-person supervision of a licensed orthodontist, warns that moving teeth without an exam and X-rays can miss gum disease or cavities and cause irreversible, expensive harm (bone and tooth loss, receding gums, changed bites), and urges patients to report problems to the FDA. See a dentist before starting, and stop and seek care if you notice pain, looseness, or bleeding.

Reported harms in the FDA device adverse-event database
Thousands of adverse-event reports have been filed with the FDA under the sequential clear-aligner product code (NXC), the large majority coded as injuries, spanning both in-office and at-home brands. A peer-reviewed analysis of the NXC reports filed from 2010 to 2020 (651 reports, 104 of them involving direct-to-consumer aligners) found the direct-to-consumer reports dominated by bite problems (41.3%), orofacial pain (29.8%) and periodontal harm (26.6%) such as loose teeth, gum recession and bone loss, with tooth sensitivity, jaw (TMJ) problems, fractured teeth and tooth loss also reported; the authors note that some of these harms are irreversible. These are unverified spontaneous reports, not incidence rates, and do not establish that any device caused the event, but they underline why an in-person check and professional oversight matter.
