Aligners
Introducing Clear Aligners — The Clearest Way to a Great Smile
Aligners straighten your teeth without wires and brackets, using a series of clear, customized, removable appliances. It’s virtually undetectable, which means hardly anyone will know that you’re straightening your teeth.
Clearly Different
Aligners combine advanced 3-D computer graphics technology to move your teeth in small steps to the desired final position prescribed by your orthodontist. Each aligner is precisely calibrated and manufactured to fit your mouth at each stage of the treatment plan. Your first step is to visit our office to determine if aligner treatment is right for you. We then use computers to construct a series of precisely calibrated aligners. Each pair of aligners are worn for about two weeks and only taken out to eat, brush and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next, your teeth will begin to move gradually -- week-by-week until the final alignment prescribed is attained. Then you'll be smiling like you never have before!
Some of the advantages of aligner treatment are:
- You can brush and floss normally to maintain healthy gums and teeth
- There are no wires, metal or brackets to cause mouth abrasions
- They are custom-made for you for comfort
How long will aligner treatment take? That varies according to your needs. Generally, aligner treatments are shorter than traditional braces treatment.
