Aligner therapy becomes far more predictable when you have clear, repeatable systems guiding every stage of treatment. It is not just about the software or the trays. It is about the way you structure your appointments, communicate with patients and review cases from home.

In this RipeGlobal Masterclass Dr. Marcela Duran reveals the complete workflow she uses to simplify aligner treatment and deliver consistent, high quality results from consult to refinement.

Drawing from years of hands-on experience in a busy clinical environment, this session shows you how to run efficient first appointments, collect comprehensive records and create structured planning habits that save time and reduce stress. You will learn how to bring order, clarity and predictability to treatments that often feel disorganised and difficult to manage.

This lecture explores how to simplify and standardise your aligner workflow, covering:

• How to run efficient, structured first appointments that set the foundation for success
• What records to collect and how to collect them systematically every time
• How to plan and review aligner cases from home using a predictable, repeatable workflow
• Practical strategies for communication, scheduling and managing refinements without overwhelm

By the end of this session, you will understand how to:

• Build predictable, repeatable systems for every stage of aligner care
• Reduce inefficiencies through structured planning and streamlined communication
• Manage refinements with confidence while keeping cases on track
• Deliver a clearer, more consistent patient experience from the first consult to the final refinement
