No matter what kind of therapies you choose, clear aligner treatment (CAT) or fixed orthodontic treatment (FOT), the therapy must be performed on the basis of periodontal health and follow the rule that the treatment cannot be harmful to the periodontal tissues. Doctors and patients prefer the clear aligner treatment because of its features, such as aesthetic, removable and comfortable. There are many studies which consider the influences of CAT on the periodontal health, and the conclusions are relatively consistent. The CAT is more beneficial for the plaque-control and maintaining the periodontal health. However, there are a few articles which are talking about applying the CAT to the patients with severe periodontitis. This article mainly reviews the effect of CAT towards the patients with periodontitis, and provides some reference when the patients with severe periodontitis need to choose a proper treatment.
