Clear Aligner Design.
Beyond Straight Teeth.
Diagnosis. Biomechanics. Occlusion. Digital treatment planning. Explore the clinical decisions behind clear aligner design with Dr. Agatha Bis.
In person: Oakville, Ontario · Date to be announced
Online edition: planned for 2027
The software shows the movement. The dentist makes the decisions.
A digital setup can predict where teeth may move. The clinical responsibility is deciding whether the proposed treatment makes sense for the patient.
Dr. Bis's educational approach starts with examination, interpretation and thoughtful treatment planning. This course brings those principles into clear aligner treatment, combining clinical assessment with digital planning, movement biomechanics and outcome evaluation.
This is a course outline for interest gathering. Dr. Bis will confirm the final clinical protocol, case examples and demonstrations before enrollment opens.
Clear Aligner Diagnosis Before Treatment Planning
Clear aligner planning begins with clinical information, not just a digital scan.
- History, periodontal assessment and diagnostic records
- Occlusion, bite relationships and functional findings
- TMJ and muscle screening when clinically relevant
- Treatment objectives, limitations and referral considerations
Digital Clear Aligner Treatment Planning
A technically appealing simulation is not the same as a clinically justified treatment plan.
- Review proposed tooth movements and sequencing
- Consider attachments, space management and anchorage
- Identify challenging movements and predictability limits
- Evaluate planned occlusal relationships and the finish
Software-specific demonstrations will be confirmed for the final program.
Clear Aligner Biomechanics and Design Decisions
A structured learning path for dentists who want to examine the reasoning behind clear aligner planning, monitoring and finishing.
Before You Move a Tooth
Patient selection, history, clinical examination, diagnostic records, periodontal considerations and knowing when additional evaluation is needed.
Occlusion and Function
Intercuspation, overjet and overbite, tooth wear, parafunction, TMJ screening and functional findings that may affect planning.
From Records to Digital Design
Intraoral scans, clinical photographs, digital setups, treatment objectives and critical evaluation of planned tooth positions.
Biomechanics and Tooth Movement
Movement predictability, attachments, anchorage, torque, rotations, intrusion, extrusion, and interproximal reduction.
Treatment Staging and Sequencing
Movement priorities, space management, proposed sequencing, clinical constraints and evaluating the intended occlusal result.
Monitoring and Troubleshooting
Tracking, patient adherence, unexpected movement, changes in occlusal contacts, refinement decisions and reassessment.
Finishing and Retention
Reviewing achieved tooth positions, occlusal relationships, residual concerns, retention options and long-term follow-up.
Inside the Clinical Cases
Guided case discussions and treatment-planning exercises. Actual cases and proprietary design techniques to be selected by Dr. Bis.
Curriculum and clinical demonstrations are subject to Dr. Bis's final review. Enrollment is not yet open.

Clear Aligner Design Online
A planned remote learning experience covering clinical assessment, digital planning, biomechanics and case-based decisions.
Course formats, instructional hours, prerequisites, dates, pricing and CE eligibility will be confirmed before enrollment opens.
For dentists who want to think beyond the simulation.
This course is intended for dentists interested in more comprehensive clear aligner treatment planning.
It may be particularly relevant to clinicians who already review digital setups but want a stronger framework for examining clinical findings, movement mechanics, occlusal outcomes and reassessment.
BIS Institute provides independent dental education. This is not Invisalign certification or a course sponsored by Align Technology.
Learn with Dr. Agatha Bis.
Founder of BIS Institute, formerly TMJ Whisperer Academy, Dr. Bis brings more than 30 years of experience in private practice to clinical education.
Her teaching emphasizes examining the full clinical picture, connecting findings and making informed treatment decisions. Her clinical workflow and selected examples will shape the final demonstrations.
