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.

Clinical evidence & professional guidance
No registered study names Dr WonderSmile
Independent clinical evidence on individual aligner brands is limited, and both the American Dental Association and the American Association of Orthodontists advise an in-person exam and dentist or orthodontist supervision before treatment. The clear aligner studies we index cover the category as a whole (134 registered on ClinicalTrials.gov).
