This is how easy the Stern Aligner workflow is!


The manufacturing process of Stern Aligners is as simple as it is efficient. You can have your Aligners made by us in just a few steps.

    First get in contact with us. We will create an account for our doctors portal.


  2. Enter all necessary information
    Upload your case including all patient information (clinical photos, digital scans and X-rays for complex cases). All information and photos can be submitted in the upload section of our portal.


  3. Treatment Plan
    After you have successfully submitted your case, our team of dentists and orthodontists will create a 3D treatment plan for you. It will be uploaded within 3 working days on our portal.



  4. Confirm your case
    Next, you can confirm the treatment plan or request changes. If the case is confirmed, we proceed to production.

  5. Aligner Production
