We offer clear aligners as a discreet and convenient way to improve tooth alignment and address certain bite concerns. These removable trays are custom-made to fit comfortably over your teeth while applying controlled pressure to guide them into their planned positions. Their nearly transparent appearance makes them a popular option for teens and adults who want a less noticeable approach to orthodontic care.


What Are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligner treatment uses a series of customized trays created from digital scans or impressions of your teeth. Each set is designed to make small, precise movements based on the treatment plan we create for your smile.

You will change to a new set of aligners according to our instructions and visit our office periodically so we can evaluate your progress. The trays are generally removed for eating, brushing, and flossing, but they must be worn consistently throughout the day and night to keep treatment moving forward.

The length of treatment depends on the complexity of your case, the amount of tooth movement needed, and how closely you follow the recommended wear schedule.


What Can Clear Aligners Correct?

We may recommend clear aligners for mild to moderate orthodontic concerns, including crowded teeth, gaps, crooked teeth, and certain overbites, underbites, or crossbites. They may also be suitable if your teeth have shifted after previous orthodontic treatment.

Before recommending treatment, we will examine your teeth, gums, bite, jaw relationships, and overall oral health. Any tooth decay, gum disease, or other dental concerns may need to be addressed before treatment begins.
