Which statement about customized aligners is incorrect?

Customized aligners are indeed removable, which facilitates easier cleaning and dental hygiene practices for patients. They are also made from clear plastic material, which enhances their aesthetic appeal, allowing for a more discreet orthodontic treatment option. The aesthetic benefits have made them increasingly popular among patients looking for less visible alternatives to traditional braces.

However, the statement regarding their application in orthodontic treatment types is not entirely accurate. Customized aligners are not universally applicable for all orthodontic cases. They are most effective for mild to moderate alignment issues and specific types of misalignment, but may not be suitable for more complex orthodontic conditions that require more significant tooth movement or correction, such as severe crowding or bite issues. Therefore, it’s essential for orthodontic professionals to evaluate each patient's specific needs and determine the most effective treatment plan, which may or may not include aligners.
