The aligners are designed to be worn nine to 12 hours each day, which is much less than the average 22 hours required by other aligner brands, according to a May 1 news release. 

NiTime Aligners are made using HyperElastic polymer material, which allows for predictable tooth movement. 

The aligner system was available to a limited group of orthodontic practices in 2023 and is now available across the U.S. for orthodontists, the release said.
