Your ClinCheck® plans shouldn’t start from scratch.

The SMARTA Comprehensive Template puts our treatment-planning rules into the starting point of every case — so your initial setup comes back closer to the plan you actually want to treat.

What if the starting point already knew the rules?

The power to customize a template is one of the most useful tools Align has given us. Instead of applying the same preferences to every patient, a template can apply different rules based on the condition in front of it.

Deep bite. Open bite. Class II. Crowding. Extraction. Phase I.

Different problems should not start with the same instructions.

We spent hundreds of hours turning our treatment philosophy into those rules, then testing and refining them on real cases. The result is the SMARTA Comprehensive Template.

It is designed to give you:

  • More realistic iTero simulations — treatment goals grounded in what you would actually plan to deliver.
  • ClinCheck® plans that start closer to finished — more time in 3D Controls making final decisions, less time rebuilding the setup or sending another round of CAD designer instructions.
  • More built into the initial order — staging, overcorrections, and condition-specific movements that are easy to miss when every case is planned from scratch.
  • Guardrails on every case — biological limits and treatment preferences built into the rules, so they don’t depend on remembering every detail every time.

Already coded. Already tested on real cases. Activated directly in your Invisalign account.

“How long did you spend building your template?”
“Can I just have yours?” Doctors started asking us those questions after seeing our cases at live events.
 The first answer is hundreds of hours. The second answer used to be no.
Real cases from Marta’s practice · nothing staged

Same patient. Three plans.

We are testing the SMARTA Template against our own finished treatment planning. For each case, we compare:

  • Global Clinical PreferencesThe generic starting point.
  • SMARTA TemplateThe same patient, started from SMARTA’s condition-specific rules.
  • The ClinCheck® Treatment Plan Marta actually approvedThe plan that went to treatment.

Then we ask one question:
How close did each starting point get to the plan we actually wanted?

New case comparisons are added as we record them. Deep bite. Open bite. Class II. Crowding. Extraction.

What you’re getting

  • SMARTA Comprehensive Template — our condition-specific preferences and prescription rules, activated in your Invisalign account. Children, teens, and adults — comprehensive treatment plus Phase I.
  • Scripts + Staging — everything we can’t code into the template yet: custom staging protocols, attachment overrides, and the CAD designer instructions we use on our own cases, ready to copy and paste.
  • On-Demand Learning — case walk-throughs and focused supplements explaining the reasoning behind the rules. Watch them when you need them. No live sessions. No schedule.
From Dr. Marta Baird and Dr. Sam Lee

Why we built it

We knew how we wanted our cases planned. The problem was getting those decisions into the initial setup every time — without rebuilding them case by case, or repeatedly sending cases back to the CAD designer.

Digital was supposed to give us more time. Less chair time turned into more computer time at night.

But there was another reason.

What if we miss something one day?

We’re planning between patients. We’re tired. We’re finishing a ClinCheck® at night. We don’t want the success of that case to depend on whether we remembered every rule we’ve learned.

We’ve read the literature. Humans haven’t changed how they grow, and the limits of biology haven’t moved. So why do our plans still show movements that aren’t biologically possible?

Because a generic starting point doesn’t know those limits. It simulates what was asked for.

We wanted those limits built into the rules before the case ever reached us.

So we built them. Hundreds of hours of coding, testing, and refinement went into turning those decisions into a system. It gives the planning time back without changing how the case is planned.

Those hours are what you’re getting.

The Founding Cohort

Twenty doctors. First in.

The first release of the SMARTA Comprehensive Template is limited to twenty founding doctors. Founding doctors receive:

  • Lifetime access to the version you purchase, plus every SMARTA Template update and release for your first two years.
  • Founding cohort pricing. Future cohorts will pay more, and major annual releases will be purchased separately.

The waitlist gets the first invitation to enroll, before public enrollment, along with the founding price.


The questions doctors ask us

I already set my Global Clinical Preferences. Isn’t that enough?

Global Clinical Preferences give one answer for every patient. The SMARTA Template uses condition-specific rules. A deep-bite patient shouldn’t start the same way as an open-bite patient. The case comparisons let you see the difference on the same patient.

Will my first case come back perfect?

No, and we would rather tell you that now. Your cases still require your clinical judgment, and you will still make decisions in 3D Controls. The difference is the starting point: specific rather than generic, with far more of the planning already built in.

Is it a subscription?

No. One payment gives you lifetime access to the version you purchase. It remains active in your account. Founding doctors also receive every update and release during their first two years. We expect major releases as Align introduces new products and capabilities.

Which cases is it built for?

Children, teens, and adults — comprehensive treatment plus Phase I early treatment. The rules change according to the condition being treated rather than applying one set of preferences to every patient.

How is this different from Costa Rica?

The SMARTA Template is our system, ready to adopt. Costa Rica is where you learn to adapt it. At the immersion, doctors work through the decisions behind the system and choose from SMARTA template variations designed around different clinical and practice workflows. Many doctors will do both: adopt the system, then learn how to make it their own.

What support is included?

Founding doctors have a defined channel for reporting cases that behave unexpectedly, plus access to an answer library built from real cohort cases. One-on-one coaching and treatment-planning support are available separately.

How much is it?

The founding price is announced to the waitlist before enrollment opens. One payment. No subscription. Doctors who join after the founding cohort pay more.

Do I have to commit by joining the waitlist?

No. Joining the waitlist means you get the first invitation when the twenty founding spots open.

Every case in our practices starts from this template. Every plan we open has already been checked against the rules and the biological limits we built into the system.

That is what I want for your cases too.
