Factors Affecting Attachment Loss in Clear Aligner Treatment

This prospective clinical study evaluated the incidence of composite attachment loss in patients undergoing clear aligner treatment and identified patient-, tooth-, and treatment-related factors associated with attachment debonding. Twenty-one patients were followed for six months, and attachment failures were recorded at routine visits. Outcomes were compared according to attachment type (conventional vs. optimized), attachment size, tooth type, dental arch, and patient-related factors.
