What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are a modern orthodontic treatment designed to straighten teeth without traditional metal braces. These nearly invisible, removable aligners gently move teeth into the correct position over time, providing a discreet and comfortable alternative to conventional orthodontics.
How Do Clear Aligners Work?
- A 3D scan captures a digital model of your teeth.
- Specialized software designs a precise, personalized treatment plan.
- Aligners are worn approximately 22 hours per day and removed only for eating, drinking, or brushing.
- Each set of aligners gradually shifts teeth step by step.
- Progress can be monitored remotely through digital treatment tracking.
Why Patients Prefer Clear Aligners
- Discreet: Nearly invisible, so very subtle during daily life.
- Flexible: Removable for meals, brushing, and special occasions.
- Comfortable: Smooth, custom-fit aligners avoid irritation.
- Safe: Metal-free, suitable for patients with sensitivities.
- Predictable: Digital simulations show expected outcomes before treatment begins.
