Clear Aligners
Orthodontic aligners are clear, custom-made plastic trays that gradually straighten teeth by applying gentle pressure, serving as a discreet, removable alternative to traditional braces for teens and adults with mild to moderate alignment issues like crowding or gaps. They work by moving teeth in small increments, with a series of aligners used over time.
How They Work
- Custom Design: Created from 3D scans of your teeth for a precise fit.
- Incremental Movement: Each aligner in a series makes slight adjustments, moving teeth toward their final position.
- Gradual Progression: You switch to a new aligner every couple of weeks as your teeth shift.
Key Benefits
- Aesthetic: Virtually invisible, making them popular for adults.
- Removable: Can be taken out for eating, brushing, and flossing, maintaining oral hygiene.
- Comfort: Smooth plastic, less likely to irritate gums than metal braces.
