What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are removable trays designed to gradually move teeth into better positions. Each set of aligners is custom-made to fit your smile and guide your teeth through a planned series of movements.
Many patients choose clear aligners because they are:
- Nearly invisible when worn
- Removable for eating and brushing
- More comfortable than metal brackets for many patients
- Easier to keep clean than traditional braces
- A good option for busy adults and teens
- Designed around a planned treatment process
Clear aligners may be used to improve crowding, gaps, mild bite concerns, and teeth that have shifted over time.
Is Clear Aligner Treatment Right for You?
Clear aligners can be a great option for many patients, but they are not right for every orthodontic concern. Before recommending treatment, our team will evaluate your teeth, bite, gums, and overall oral health.
You may be a candidate for clear aligners if you have:
- Crooked or crowded teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Teeth that have shifted after past orthodontic treatment
- Mild bite alignment concerns
- A desire for a discreet alternative to braces
- Healthy teeth and gums before treatment begins
If clear aligners are not the best option for your needs, we will explain why and help you understand what other choices may make more sense.
