Aligner treatment communication Template – What to explain to the patient

This document is a ready-to-use clinical email template designed to help orthodontists clearly communicate the full aligner treatment plan to their patients.

The template includes structured explanations of:

• interproximal reduction (IPR / stripping)
• attachments and auxiliary accessories
• number of aligners and estimated treatment duration
• retention protocols
