Aligner Pontics – Now in Light Shade - Aligner Pontics are the leading at-home solution for temporarily filling gaps caused by missing or partially missing teeth during orthodontic treatment. Designed for use with clear aligner and retainer trays, these tooth-colored pontics blend naturally with your smile and fit comfortably into your clear aligner or retainer tray. The new Light Shade provides an even more seamless match to a wider range of smiles, great for those who whiten their teeth at home or professionally, or for those with naturally whiter teeth (approximates Vita Shades A1-C1 and M1-M3). Each pontic is easy to mold, fits snugly against adjacent teeth and gums, and can be applied in seconds. Why Aligner Pontics? Aligner Pontics are made of smooth, flexible material, helping to comfortably and effectively fill in spaces to help reduce pressure on the gums.
