German term
Schienensystem
German to English
Medical
Medical: Dentistry
Orthodontics
"Die Vorzüge des Schienensystems lagen bei kleinem Lückenschluss und Frontzahnrotationen."
Context: this comes from a German summary of the following scientific article: Outcome assessment of Invisalign and traditional orthodontic treatment compared with American Board of Orthodontics objective grading system.
Garret Djeu, Clarence Shelton, Anthony Maganzini (http://www.ajodo.org/article/S0889-5406(05)00626-8/fulltext) September 2005.
So this "Schienensystem" refers to the Invisalign orthodontic device.
How can we put this term in English?

Selected
aligner system
The “Invisalign” company has run a very extensive advertising campaign so “Invisalign” is probably the best known aligner system.
