CLEAR ALIGNERS

Clear aligners are a discreet and removable alternative to traditional metal braces, designed to straighten teeth effectively. Made from transparent, medical-grade plastic, they are custom-fitted to your teeth for optimal comfort and precision.

How They Work

Clear aligners work by applying gentle pressure to gradually move your teeth into the desired position. The treatment involves wearing a series of aligners, each for a specified amount of time. With each aligner, your teeth shift slightly until they reach their ideal alignment.

When We Recommend Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are suitable for mild to moderate orthodontic issues, including gapped teeth, crowded teeth, overbites, and underbites. We find they are an excellent choice for individuals who prefer to avoid traditional braces.

Why Straight Teeth Are Important

A confident smile is invaluable, but having straight teeth also improves your dental health and overall well-being?

Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, lowering the risk of cavities, tooth decay, and gum disease.
A correct bite alignment supports jaw health, helping to prevent discomfort and pain.
Efficient chewing aids digestion, contributing to better overall health.

Treatment Time

The duration of treatment varies depending on the severity of the case and if the patient is compliant. Teens may need to wear the clear aligners longer than adults.

Generally, the treatments can take between 12-18 months to complete.

Clear aligners offer a convenient and effective way to achieve a straighter smile without the challenges of metal braces.
