| Sumario: | Currently, aesthetic standards are increasing every day, society has created an ideal beauty standard in which white teeth, aligned, leveled and with the shape they deem beautiful is indicative of oral health. This fact means that the search for professionals in cosmetic dentistry ends up increasing, especially the search for orthodontists. However, conventional fixed orthodontic appliances are not considered aesthetic, which forced the evolution of this aspect within orthodontics. After many studies, invisible aligners were developed and improved, considered the gold standard in terms of aesthetics, they are efficient and have good predictability when used within their indications. This work aims to highlight the invisible aligners as another option within its field of work. A qualitative narrative literature review was carried out, using PubMED, Lillacs, BVSsalud and Scielo databases, in Portuguese and English, with no year restrictions. It was observed that the indications for these invisible aligners are still extremely restricted, in many cases the aligners do not get results as satisfactory as conventional fixed appliances and when they do, they need a longer treatment time, which results in higher costs. |
